Notification-Problem with escalation

Hi,
i defined some hostgroups to classify our environment (switches, routers, novell, nt, linux etc.) For each group i've defined hostgroupescalation. 1-2 
warnings via email to admins, the next 2-5 via email to another group too and 
after 5 notification with sms. 

Running System ist RH7.3 and nagios 1.0

Problem-description:

the defined contact-groups have all three members, but only the first member 
would be notified.

example:

# 'nt-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       nt-admins
        alias                   NT Admins
        members                 user-a, user-b, user-c
        }

# 'nt-admins-sms' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       nt-admins-sms
        alias                   NT Admins SMS
        members                 user-a-sms, user-b-sms, user-c-sms
        }

# Hostgroup 'nt-servers' escalation definition
define hostgroupescalation{
        hostgroup_name                  nt-servers
        first_notification              2
        last_notification               5
        contact_groups                  nt-admins, leitstand
        notification_interval           10
        }

# Hostgroup 'novell-servers' escalation definition
define hostgroupescalation{
        hostgroup_name                  nt-servers
        first_notification              6
        last_notification               0
        contact_groups                  nt-admins-sms, leitstand-sms
        notification_interval           10
        }

I couldn't believe, that the " " [SPACE] between some definitions is a 
problem, becaus SPACES work on hosts.cfg, services.cfg and so on.
