Sorry, I meant to say "only alerts through each command at most one  
time" (if that's proper English).

So the characteristics of the contactprofile define the filters for a  
particular event, the command defines the type of notification  
(email, sms, paging, rss) and the above rule stops you getting  
multiple emails/sms/pages/rss items for a single event.
