Nagios notifications

[Dale J. Chatham]

See my prior, in the service-notify-by-email (or whatever) use /bin/mail 
$HOSTNAME$ ...

Or, write a script to send the mail and send the HOSTNAME macro to it 
and make it smart enough to know who to notify.

Each contact group is only responsible for a portion of the hosts.  Surely there is a better way to achieve this in lieu of creating 320 services.
