Description
Hi Guys,
Once an alert is triggered a NEW email is send, but if the alert goes trought the repeat_interval it get send back, but its impossible to spot when there is a new email or a repeated email(alert).
For an email with repeated alerts an email subject as "Not Solved Alerts [FIRING:5] -----" or even on the email body. Something easy to spot if the alert is new or is repeating.
