Do you seeing it trying to send a notification in the log file?  Perhaps
you've configured it not to send emails.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Nagios doesn't send mail!

Hello list,

I'm using nagios 1.2 and it's working fine except the fact that it
doens't send mail when servicegoes down! I can see on the web interface
that the service is down (red) but I don't get emailed on my phone or
email address.

The mail program is working on the server, I can use command like
"sendmail name at domain.com < /tmp/testmail.txt" and receive the email, I
can also use /bin/mail -s to send mail via the terminal and I receive
it, therefore /bin/mail and /usr/sbin/sendmail work. I know that Nagios
use /bin/mail to send alert because that is what is used and configured
inside the misscommand.cfg file. So I don't understand why Nagios
doesn't alert me when hosts or service goes down.

Somebody has an idea? Thanks.

Gerhard,
