The problem is that the cell phone has a limited amount of buffer space for received messages so whenever I get a page from nagios it gets split into 2 or more messages. Is it possible to reduce the content of the message to read something like:

Of course you can do this. Change you notification command in your 
config file !
If you're using the predefined 'notify-by-pager' or whatever, remove all 
the text you don't want to be sent to your cell-phone.
