This is how i wanted to make it look like :

[05-19-2009 13:34:00] HOST ALERT: app-engbw5;DOWN;HARD;3;FPING CRITICAL -
(loss=100% )

[05-19-2009 13:33:00] HOST ALERT: app-engbw5;DOWN;SOFT;2;FPING CRITICAL -
(loss=100% )

[05-19-2009 13:32:00] HOST ALERT: app-engbw5;DOWN;SOFT;1;FPING CRITICAL -
(loss=100% )

Then at 13:34:00 send out the notification .  Is this feasible ??
