In the alerts file the time in a round about way goes backwards. I dont 
have it implemented now but im fauly sure it was something like this

host=xyz.com time=*:0820:0800  which means that it alerts from 820 
around till 800 again which means it skips 20 mins after 8am. Not sure 
if my memory is 100% correct but it does sound familiar.


I didnt know there was an ignore bit that like but if my guess is 
correct then just switch your times around.
