issue sending out emails when host goes down

[Lovell Mcilwain]

Hello all,

I am having this issue with Nagios where it is sending me pager 
notifications about a host being down but it doesn't send me an e mail 
to my e mail client letting me know the same information.  Whatever 
emails it does send are blank and the only reason I know it is from 
Nagios is because the sender says "Nagios Account", otherwise the 
subject line and the e mail content are both empty.  Has anyone ever 
encountered this?  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

Here are some clippings of my files to give you an idea of my settings:
