Additional Fields in Notifications

[Jason Branscum]

Greets all

When replacing WhatsUp with Nagios, I neglected to check for a certain
functionality that some of my staff rely on.  Currently in WhatsUp, there
are "Notes" fields which contain text, we use them to store contact
information on sites; ie circuit numbers, contact phone numbers, etc. 
We're all paged with this information and need not logon to a PC to look
this information up; its just handy.

I've come up with only one solution; to recode check_ping to parse a txt
file for a site name and include the site information whenever a return is
WARN or CRIT.  Before I went out coding this, I wanted to see if anyone
had any bright ideas on how to email out extra fields per host.
