[Xymon] exclude from alerts..

[Larry Bonham]

TIME=W:0000:0659,W:1801:2359,06:0000:2359 is a time setting that we use to activate a rule M-F 12AM-6:59AM, M-F 6:01PM-11:59PM, and Sunday and Saturday all day.

Not sure about all versions but at least with v4.3.28, this rule can be written as:

HOST=%^PBX* SERVICE=conn TIME=*:0000:0458,*:0510:2359
MAIL xxxxx at gmail.com<mailto:xxxxx at gmail.com> REPEAT=30 RECOVERED

If the TIME setting was on the MAIL line, xymon would still record the outage but would not send out the email.
