Hi,

I tried to regain the earlier form of from address by using:

set mail-format { from: address@hidden }     but that still uses the 'check system' system name

check system $HOST              doesn't work, the $HOST is not expanded

any other ideas please.

Hi, everyone!

We have just released Monit 5.5. You can download the new release from:

http://mmonit.com/monit/download/


Release information:
====================

IMPROVEMENTS:

* check program:
        - Multiple exit values can be tested within single program check
        - Exit value test supports multiple cycles option ("for X cycles")
        - If exit value test matches and the stderr has no data, try stdout

  Example syntax:
    check program mytest with path "/usr/bin/mytest.sh" with timeout 1000 seconds
       if status == 2 then exec "/usr/local/bin/fix_script.sh"
       if status == 2 for 6 cycles then unmonitor
       if status == 10 then alert

* Renamed mail header (message-id and mime-version) to prevent
  triggering spam check of capitalization. Thanks to Ryan Lee
  for tips.

* The 'check system <name>' statement sets the system hostname in mail
  alerts and initial hostname in M/Monit.

* Increase the default mailserver timeout to 30 seconds.

* Add support for OpenBSD 5.1.

BUGFIXES:

* Fix the rare hung on linux which may occur during program execution.
  Thanks to Nick Upson for report.

* In the case that the process start/restart execution failed,
  monit kept "Execution failed" flag even if the process was
  recovered later (for example it was starting slowly or manually
  recovered).

* Fix the mail alert (strict SMTP implementation) to pass
  MTA-side sanity checks like postscreen. Thanks to Len Conrad
  for report.

* The -t option tests the configuration file syntax even if the
  file permissions are wrong. Thanks to Adam Nielsen for report.

* Do not display the default non-existence test for the check
  program (not applicable in the check program context).
