You can modify qtime and nolotsmsgs in the notification method. making
qtime greather than 0 delays notification for x seconds and waits for
more notifications. then after x seconds, argus will send one message
containing all the notifications within that period. nolotsmsgs will
show each notification rather than the "lots of stuff went down" summary.
so you might want to add to your config:
Method "mail" {
nolotsmsgs: yes # no lots of stuff just went down
qtime: 10 # gather notifications for 10 seconds
command: sendmail -t
send: To: %R\nFrom:%F\nSubject: Argus %E\n\n%M\n
}
