getting repeat emails

[Kriek Jooste]

I am sure I am missing something simple, and would like some extra eyes on this.

The effect I'm seeing is that when a service is in a state I want to
send notifications (e.g. CRITICAL) for, it seems to keep on sending
notifications out, every 20 or 30 minutes or so.  For example:
2009-9-29 13:36:38  SERVICE NOTIFICATION:
kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login
Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1065(1000.0)
2009-9-29 14:06:25  SERVICE NOTIFICATION:
kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login
Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1128(1000.0)
2009-9-29 14:46:33  SERVICE NOTIFICATION:
kriek-email;kokeyserver;Login
Requests;CRITICAL;notify-by-email;CRITICAL LoginRequests:1046(1000.0)

What I want is for it to notify me only once when it goes from OK to
CRITICAL, until the service is OK again.

I would have thought this is controlled by notification interval, but
here's the service from the objects cache:

define service {
        host_name       kokeyserver
        service_description     Login Requests
        check_period    24x7
        check_command   service-is-stale
        contact_groups  linux-admins
        notification_period     24x7
        initial_state   o
        check_interval  5.000000
        retry_interval  1.000000
        max_check_attempts      3
        is_volatile     0
        parallelize_check       1
        active_checks_enabled   0
        passive_checks_enabled  1
        obsess_over_service     0
        event_handler_enabled   1
        low_flap_threshold      0.000000
        high_flap_threshold     0.000000
        flap_detection_enabled  0
        flap_detection_options  o,w,u,c
        freshness_threshold     1800
        check_freshness 1
        notification_options    u,w,c,r
        notifications_enabled   1
        notification_interval   10080.000000
        first_notification_delay        0.000000
        stalking_options        n
        process_perf_data       1
        failure_prediction_enabled      1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    1
        }
