While we're on the subject of alert configuration, could someone
confirm mine?
HOST=*
MAIL josh (at) imaginenetworksllc.com
<mailto:josh (at) imaginenetworksllc.com> COLOR=RED DURATION>15m RECOVERED
It will only email once something has been red for 15m and it will
email once it has become green again - correct?

the regex is wrong, you probably want "%ep.*"

For http, this will work as intended. There is a "gotcha" when this is
used with tests that can go yellow - this is not the case with "http"
tests. But e.g. a disk check that goes yellow for an hour, then red
would NOT trigger an alert in this case, first because you don't alert
on yellow, and second because the duration of the incident exceeds 35
minutes when it does go red (DURATION begins when the status goes
non-green).
