Wondering if anything else has seen this problem. The people who receive 
the alerts are complaining they get too many. What they should is fix 
their problems but...

Setting DURATION>5 also seems to be ignored.
So short of increasing bbnet-test --timeout to a longer period can 
anything else be done ?
