Not sure is this is a devmon question, or xymon, but figured I try here first.

I have a table built/displayed on xymon via devmon for temperature on our L2 stacks. 

The issue is when a "red" event happens and an email is sent, the format of the email is just horrible.  

I've tried adding "FORMAT=PLAIN" within the alerts.cfg for that particular event, but I don't really see a change. 

Is there any way to make the email body a little nicer ??

Below is an example of the email content:

Alarming on (46.50,46.50,46.50)
