at it this way. One of my wireless subnets just went to hell; tripped
'service critical' messages for five or six servers, as the ping RTA time
suddenly shot up. So I got five emails. I'd rather have gotten one
email with five entries.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

to see from Nagios would be the ability to have aggregated status
messages; I'd like to be able to tell it that when it feels the need to
send a status message, it should tell me what (if anything) is already
(still) down, what (if anything) has just come back up, and what (if
anything) has just gone down.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV>

satellite router goes down, I get one email saying 'routerX down, hosts
a,b,c,d,e,f,g now unreachable' instead of getting eight or nine
emails. Also, if a subnet goes down, but things are coming back
up one by one, I can tell which is still down and which is still
up.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></DIV>
