in bbwarnsetup.cfg

you can use the 'pg-*' feature to specify several recipients
with a single name:

pg-robs: robert@mail rob@mail robert-andre@mail ...

PS: in bbwarnrules.cfg don's specify pg-robs:15.  Use the
:15 :~15-30 or :^15-30 tag only in the pg-* directive.

i.e.  pg-robs: robert@mail:15 rob@mail:~15 robert-andre@mail:^30-60

There's a bug where the :15 tag is not understood in a pg-
directive if its defined in the bbwarnrules.cfg file.

you can also use the 'hg-*' feature to group hosts together

hg-mtl: devmtl.xxx.com paxmtl.xxx.com pagemtl.xxx.com ...


you can also use the GROUP tag for the pagetype directive.

pagetype: GROUP

this will send only one notification per pagedelay for any
event of any host found within the same group in bb-hosts.
