So, do you have a 24/7 online system and require immediate notification
of an error? How do you handle your error reporting?

Individual emails per error?
Combination, digest and individual emails?

Depends on the nature of the error I guess. Some would be more urgent than
others. For instance if the disk fills or your web server goes down you
might want a SMS sent immediately whereas logging to a database or file
would be ok for other less serious errors
