      I installed arpwatch 0.2.0_1 and see 'sometimes' still flip flop emails.

      Odd...
      Do you see it after upgrade ?

        Since uninstall/reinstall replaced my custom fixes it wouldn't surprise me if an upgrade overwrote any modifications you've made. Just go re-edit the /usr/local/pkg/arpwatch.inc file, and in the arpwatch config hit "save" to copy from there to /usr/local/arpwatch/sendmail_proxy.php. You can use the file viewer to confirm whether the modifications are there.

        I have only seen one other "flip flop" email for a different device (my Orbi mesh router, that has a hidden mac/wifi address for its backhaul network).

          I did not did Save configuration step, hope it's good now.
          Confirmed now the changes were saved to /usr/local/arpwatch/sendmail_proxy.php

          Thx

              @viktor_g Fantastic! I had thought about doing something like that but had no clue where to start.

                So now that @viktor_g showed us the right way to make a permanent fix, I've implemented that change as well as my own tweak to it, and another request to not wipe the database on uninstall/upgrade. I love this community. :)

                    Dunno, @viktor_g made a pull request that someone has to review, and I made a pull request to his branch that he has to review (and testing indicates might be broken...) and then even when they are all accepted they need to release 0.2.0_2.

                    So.... don't hold your breath, but if you're comfortable hacking a bit, you can get a jump on the official release :)

                      Finally figured out my error.... 0 can be either false or true depending on which logical operator you use.
