It sure sounds like you're not editing what you think you're editing
(i.e. that template isn't used by nagios or the services you think
you're changing). Please provide specific details or we're just going to
be guessing randomly.

Template definition
Service definition
Contactgroup definition
Contact definition
Nagios.cfg line where templates.cfg is included as a cfg_file.
'pwd; ls -l templates.cfg' in the directory it lives in.
'ps -efwww | grep nagios' output (or whatever ps variant your system
uses)
