I don't know if there might be a way to do that on the client side, but you
could probably whip something up on the server.  See what you get back from
this command:

     server/bin/xymon localhost "xymondboard
host=server.domain.comtest=who fields=msg"

It should be the full text of the message that was delivered for the "who"
column.  Once you get that text, you could write a script to process it and
issue alerts.
