Hopefully someone else can replicate this issue. It appears that when using Poormanscron (current ver) and Notify (current ver), the domain name in emails sent out by Notify is replaced with the IP or host name of the visitor that sets off poormanscron. Example:

Email from Notify should say "new content has appeared on your site: http://www.example.com/content/foo/bar"
however it is now saying "new content has appeared on your site: http://12.34.56.78/content/foo/bar" or even "http://www.another-host-name.com/content/foo/bar"

I'm a bit disconcerted at *any* external content being injected through Drupal, whether it's into the database or just an email. But if anyone can help me develop this issue and see what's really going on here it would be much appreciated. Perhaps I'm completely off course and someone else has resolved this issue before. I posted this @ Notify but no one has responded.

Sounds like you need to set the $base_url variable in your site's settings.php. Sometimes when cron runs on the local server, it generates these types of links. We've had the same problem in the XML sitemap module.
