Alert macro syntax

[Kevin.Hanrahan at novainfo.com]

Hi all,
 I could use some help with the syntax for alert using macros. I tried
defining servers as such:

$GROUP1=server1 server2 server3
$GROUP2=server4

And then defined a pagegroup as such:

$SYSADMIN=kevin at domain.com


Then I made some rules:

HOST=$GROUP1
        MAIL $SYSADMIN COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED

HOST=$GROUP2
        MAIL $SYSADMIN COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED



The rule for GROUP2 works as it should but the rule for GROUP1 (the one with
multiple servers) does nothing at all! I have tried enclosing the multiple
server names in quotes like this:
	$GROUP1="server1 server2 server3"


But that made no difference....still no alerts. Can someone tell me the
proper syntax for defining multiple items in a macro?


Thank you.
