I have yet to see you confirm that send_mail.pl actually exists.  None 
of my default installs have this script, so I'm assuming that's your 
problem. 

Download it from NagiosExchange 
(http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/page.cgi?g=2217.html;d=1) and put 
it wherever $USER1$ is (this is the default location of check_x 
commands, it's defined in Nagios' resources file).
