i had the list also as RCPT a well as now
so no need to re-post

it makes pretty no sense having a discussion where
answers are releaed Tuesday because moderation and
until then are out of context

you do not know which servic es are using it in the future
after the damage is done it's to let to think about the impact

and after i have my notify that "service X" crashed 5 times in
the last 30 minutes i can also start debugging, if i see
soemthing crashs too often and if i have yet time to debug

that's why it should be good considered *when* and *how often*
you get so notifies, it's not easier to debug if you are at it
and you get each minute a new notify nor does it help much
having in the morning 100 messages saying "service X has a problem"

that's all about rate-limiting and collectiong relevant infos
without too much noise all day long - if it get's too much
you simply start ignore the notifies leading to ignore
sooner or later a really imporant one
