[Xymon] Bounty: Cash for Fix for: Recovery notifications not generated when test goes red->yellow->green?

Xymon already knows the recipients because it keeps track of them for
REPEAT processing, saving the time of the last alert sent so that it knows
when it's time to send each repeat.

Another solution is to simply keep track of whether an alert was sent for
each of the ALERTCOLORS and send recovery messages for all of them, not
just the last one. The recovery processing can simply lookup the recipients
at that time, rather than having to keep track of them.

P.S. Possibly the best analysis of this problem is in this message and
thread:

I suspect the best solution may be for the code to record the recipients
that were sent the alert and send the recovery to those, like Big Brother
does (according to that thread).
