[ossec-list] Ossec Problem: email_alert_level not being honored. Alert level 3 received in mail.

[Frank Spierings <Frank.Spierings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi people,

I have a problem with my OSSEC server.
The ossec.conf is pretty default. I only changed the email to address.

This is the only alerts group in the file:
  <alerts>
    <log_alert_level>1</log_alert_level>
    <email_alert_level>7</email_alert_level>
  </alerts>

Still I'm receiving "ossec agent started" emails from the server,
which are level 3. I checked out the specific rule, but I dont see any
indication why it should send me these mails.
Any idea where I should start my quest?

Thanks,

Frank Spierings
