Notifications not being sent

[Frederick Arkins]

Probably a newbie error here bur I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.

I have a "dummy" machine set up upon which I'm creating alerts to test
notifications.  This is what appears in the log yet the email
does not go out -- does not show up in the mailllog file.  It just seems to
hit /dev/null.


[1165522038] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER:
Tech-Con-4;check-cpu-load-win;CRITICAL;SOFT;1;host-notify-by-email
[1165522054] SERVICE ALERT: Tech-Con-4;check-xp-memory;OK;SOFT;3;Memory
usage: total:2400.24 Mb - used: 1128.06 Mb (47%) - free: 1272.18 Mb (53%)
[1165522054] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER:
Tech-Con-4;check-xp-memory;OK;SOFT;3;host-notify-by-email

 Herre is my command definition:



define command {
                command_name                    host-notify-by-email
                command_line                    /bin/echo Service state:
$SERVICEOUTPUT$ | /bin/mail -s '$SERVICESTATE$ alert for $HOSTALIAS$'
$CONTACTEMAIL$
}



I've tried different iterations to this to no avail.  I don't think it is
mail on the machine as it is delivering other mail.



OS is RHEL3.



Thanks,

Fred
