See if you have notification alerts in nagios.log for it.
	if no, verify the notification options for the service defintion,  
contactgroup and contacts.
	if yes, verify that you see the notification in your mail log
		if no, enhance or change your notification script to log interesting  
information to a file
		if yes, follow the notification out from there.
