+1 for Vladimir Dobriakov's comment #28 and wirespot's comment #20
I have a script that I run every 5 minutes. I want to get notified when it exits successfully. I don't need 10 seconds to read 'Success: my-script.sh".
From #29: "Marco Chiappero, it is true that expire_timeout is not part of the Hints table and therefore not explicitly optional, though I could get all RFC-2119 about it and point out that the definition of expire_timeout uses the word "should" rather than "must"."
I skimmed the DNS and RFC-2119 out of curiosity and mincing words with RFC-2119 as justification for ignoring part of a spec you don't want to implement is beyond ridiculous. I've never seen the DNS before and I know EXACTLY what they intended; expire_timeout is supposed to be obeyed or it would have been included with the other hints.
