and do this automatically is a bad idea

how often should the ybe sent if a service goes crazy
and starts crashing 5 seconds after start, is restarted
by "Restart=always" and flooding your inbox - such behavior
is known as "self DOS" if implemented not 100% perfect

i have scripts parsing /var/log/messages and sent out notifies
every 30 minutes if something went wrong, all important services
have Restart=always and so i only need to know that it
happened and how often it happens
