How can I pass two arguments to `--mail-type` option of `salloc`?

Question

I would like to pass two arguments to an option of a shell command, specifically, for salloc. I can choose to do either of the following

salloc -n 1 -t 24:00:00 --mail-type=BEGIN
salloc -n 1 -t 24:00:00 --mail-type=TIME_LIMIT_80

where the option mail-type takes arguments BEGIN, which emails you when a node is allocated successfully, or the argument TIME_LIMIT_80, which emails you when your node is approaching 80% of its time limit.

However, I would like it to do both. How can I instruct mail-type to take both BEGIN and TIME_LIMIT_80?

Thank you in advance!

This is what the manual reads [emphasis mine]:

--mail-type=<type>

Notify user by email when certain event types occur. Valid type values are NONE, BEGIN, END, FAIL, REQUEUE, ALL (equivalent to BEGIN, END, FAIL, REQUEUE, and STAGE_OUT), STAGE_OUT (burst buffer stage out and teardown completed), TIME_LIMIT, TIME_LIMIT_90 (reached 90 percent of time limit), TIME_LIMIT_80 (reached 80 percent of time limit), and TIME_LIMIT_50 (reached 50 percent of time limit). Multiple type values may be specified in a comma separated list. The user to be notified is indicated with --mail-user.

^(source)

So it seems --mail-type=BEGIN,TIME_LIMIT_80 should work.

_{Note: I have never ever used salloc; I like reading manuals though. :)}
