Check command:
# 'notify-by-pager' command definition
define command{
       command_name    notify-by-pager
       command_line    echo /usr/local/pager/client $CONTACTADDRESS1$
""Service: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\nInfo: $SERVICEOUTPUT$\nDate:
$LONGDATETIME$ $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is
$SERVICESTATE$"" >> /tmp/nagios_notification.log
       }


Result:
/usr/local/pager/client networktech Service: NSLookupnHost:
dns2nAddress: xx.xxx.xx.xxxnState: CRITICALnInfo: DNS CRITICAL -
expected xx.xxx.xx.yyy but got xx.xxx.xx.zzznDate: Tue Jan 23 13:32:48
CST 2007 PROBLEM: dns2/NSLookup is CRITICAL

So I was wrong a bit, it's filling in the IPs and hostnames...
