[hobbit] questions about hobbit-alerts.cfg and hobbit-clients.cfg

[Steinar M. Skúlason]

HOST=$WINBLOWS
        MAIL bill.gates at microsoft.com RECOVERED DURATION>5 REPEAT=60
SERVICE=BSOD
        SCRIPT /usr/lib/hobbit/server/ext/send-sms.sh <my-phone-number>
FORMAT=PLAIN DURATION>30 RECOVERED REPEAT=60 COLOR=red SERVICE=BSOD

REPEAT is valid for both SCRIPT and MAIL - but not for host.
