<p>You probably need to tweak the perl code to use the full url for your Xymon server...something like <br>
</p>
<p><br>

<p><body background="http://example.com/xymon/gifs/bkg-red.gif"><br>

</p>
<p>Of course, the script says it's embedding it in the message so I'm likely off base here.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am trying to setup HTML email alerts, I found this script on xymonton which appears to be exactly what I need
<a href="https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/alerts:html_mail">https://wiki.xymonton.org/doku.php/alerts:html_mail</a> I followed the instructions and added it to my alerts.cfg.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">It successfully sends HTML emails, however it doesn’t seem to contain a colour to match the alert which I think it should? I assumed I would get a line down the left side similar to what you see on the xymon webpages.

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This is what I get emailed:</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If I look at the HTML source for the email I think based on this I can assume the scripts logic is successfully matching the alert colour to the correct .gif it needs:</p>
