contact emails

[Tony Heal]

I have a Debian (woody) 2.01b system and I need to get notifications sent to
several email addresses for the same contact.

$CONTACTADDRESSn$
Address of the contact being notified. Each contact can have six different
addresses (in addition to email address and pager number). The macros for
these addresses are $CONTACTADDRESS1$ - $CONTACTADDRESS6$. This value is
taken from the addressx directive in the contact definition.

After reading the docs it looks like I have to use addressx where x is a
number 1-6 in my contact def and (although it is not stated) set up a
definition in misccommands.cfg to use this.

This setup passes the check, but still does not email both email addresses.
Only the address for email (not address1). I actually need to get notified
on at least 3 email addresses.

# 'notify-by-address-1' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-by-address-1
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios
*****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /usr/bin/mail -s "$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is
$SERVICESTATE$ - $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert" $CONTACTADDRESS1$
        }

contact defined in contacts.cfg
# 'theal' contact definition
define contact{
        contact_name                    theal
        alias                           Tony Heal
