Monit alert e-mails

[spfld]

The "gateway_alert" service is doing a great job of alerting me to one of my WAN uplinks being down. Is there someway to have it alert me when the condition starts (and ends) and perhaps just one an hour or something like that while the condition persists? Now that I have a ticket open with the upstream provider, I don't need an e-mail every two minutes.
