[hobbit] ack an alert with email or phone

You just really write a script that sends the command:

 

$bbcmd $BBDISPLAY ack $number $ackTimePeriod $ackMessage

 

After taking an incoming message and discerning an incoming email

 

 

I use perl + postfix + Email::Filter perl module for mine, it's fairly
straightforward -

Acknowledging an alert, not alerting people.

I have not seen docs myself, but I have done this for Big Brother... I
imagine the process could be similar. Trouble is, BB comes with an Ack
page for WAP -- Xymon appears not to.

Anyways, for BB, the script was called bb-mailack.sh and the way it
worked was via procmail.
