Monitor/Alert problems

I have Monitor and Thold installed and it works well, maybe a little too well. I have a host that I'm working on, so it will be down, and I place the machine as disables and not monitored, yet it keeps sending me a dead host notification. I know the host is dead, I'm working on it. Is this a bug or is there something I can do to fix this.

I've got the same problem. It appears that as long as 'dead host notification' is enabled, ALL devices will report, not just the devices that are monitored. It'd be nice to have only devices with the monitor tab enabled to email.
I'm currently polling > 100 devices, yet only want to be notified when about 25 of them become unreachable.

Thold and Monitor are 2 separate plugins. Thold does not check the "monitored" checkbox. It should be respecting the Disabled status though.
