Additional Info in email?

[Andrew Davis]

Perhaps I need to ask a clarification question... in my 
checkcommands.cfg, should I change $SERVICEOUTPUT$ to 
$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$ or should I add the $LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$ macro to the 
notify-service-by-email command? I'm thinking that some tests will write 
some data to $SERVICEOUTPUT$, but others can include additional info 
with $LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$, so rather than change $SERVICEOUTPUT$ to 
$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$, I should add it? Perhaps something like this:

Before:
~\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$

After:
~\n\nInfo:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$
