Another alert rules question

[Lowery, Michael]

Can you have two duration directives, like this?  I've been looking for
a way to stop notifications after a period of time, is this the answer?

MAIL me at myserver.com DURATION>10 DURATION<120

Thanks,
Michael

Hmm - hadn't thought about that. I'd say it ought to work, but looking 
at the way recovery messages are handled it seems you're right - if the
max. duration has been reached, the recovery message is never sent.

It's a bug. Will fix.
