sending warnings and criticals via different transports.

[Steve Shipway]

I achieved this by creating a dummy user, 'pager' that accepts only
criticals, and added them to the same contact group as the rest of us.  Of
course, this is easy because we have a single on-call pager that is passed
around.  If you are trying to do this for separate people, I would suggest
you create a separate wrapper script that checks the alert is CRITICAL and
only calls the pager program if so.  Just define this as a new command in
the .cfg files, and hook it in as a different alert method.

Hi, 
I am trying to configure the sending of warning alerts via email only and
the sending of criticals via e-mail and sms. 
I have read the DOCO and can not find out how to achieve this apart from
setting up a user twice once for warnings via e-mail and once for critical
alerts via sms.

Has any one done this?
