Our notification script connects directly to our mail servers which
always hang for at least 5 seconds and sometimes much longer. :)  A
test could also probably be performed by setting the notification
command to "sleep 10".  I tried playing with the notification_timeout
option again (which worked for me in 2.9), but I haven't had any luck
with it working properly in 3.0.1.  I set notification_timeout=5, but
the notification script still ran for over a minute before I manually
killed it.
