Try using echo -e instead of printf and see if that makes a difference:

command_line	/bin/echo -e "***** Nagios  *****\n\nNotification 
Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: 
$HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: 
$DATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$OUTPUT$" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** 
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" 
$CONTACTEMAIL$


The host and service definitions look ok to me.
