Hi Guys, great software .

Having one small issue with email alerts, it send ok but lists the ip not the device name, make sit hard when we have over 2000 machines being monitored, how can i get it to list the device name not ip, i have changed the line in the event email to "Device: ${evt/device/title}" but still only sends as an IP addy.

Cheers
