Hi there,

I currently have a notification object:

```auto
apply Notification "mail-icingaadmin" to Service {
  import "mail-service-notification"
  user_groups = host.vars.notification.mail.groups
  users = host.vars.notification.mail.users
  if (service.check_command == "yum") {
    interval = 24h
  }
  assign where host.vars.notification.mail && host.vars.emergency
}

```

This worked for 24 hours. After that, the notifications came back and are back to sending every 30 minutes now.

Does anyone have an idea on why this might be the case?
