Error - ActionEmail.ExecuteAction threw an exception

I'm seeing the following error message in my swAlert.log file for several advanced alerts I have configured for devices that go down.

2009-11-03 13:09:29,431 [AlertCheckingThread] WARN Error - ActionEmail.ExecuteAction threw an exception.
The parameter 'to' cannot be an empty string.
Parameter name: to

The To address is populated via a custom property and referenced via ${Nodes.AlertEmail}.

My trigger conditions are set as follows:

Trigger Alert when all of the following apply
     DeviceType is equal to Access Point
     In_Production is equal to Yes
     Node Status is equal to Down
     AlertEmail is not empty

Is anyone else seeing where certain trigger conditions don't appear to be honored for alerts?

Are your node down alerts working ok and this error is just in the logs?

Yes. Our alerts are working fine. We're just seeing this error in our logs every time an alert fires on a node that does not have an entry for the AlertEmail property.
