I believe that what you have set is for it to trigger when the number
reaches 90.  If you want it to trigger at 90% of MaxBytes, you should
specify 90% (with the % symbol).

AFAIK you can only set up a single Max threshold for the incoming value.
However, the current value is passed to the trigger script, so you could
then make the trigger script examine the value and choose which secondary
script to call?  I'm not sure if MRTG calls the script once on passing the
threshold or if it calls it every time a value greater than the threshold is
received.
