Pretty simple stuff, really -- if you want to keep a host check, you need to use one that *can* tell if the host is up or down. In your case, maybe check_smtp would work. The problem is that even though the services check ok (green), I still keep getting a down (red) in the "hostgroup overvie

You could make the host check a 'ping' (not active), and assign a single (active) 'ping' service to each host. That way when the service fails, the host is checked, and then the status of the host will change. Kinda redundant, but it'll work. I'm sure someone like Hugo or Marc will come up with
