Yes and no. Nagios will never bother with the email address,
except for expanding the string you've written there when it's
time to notify someone. If your notification script can take
care of a comma-separated list of email addresses, then all
will be fine.

I believe the default notification commands will if you omit
the comma and just separate the two (or more) email addresses
with spaces. I leave it as an exercise to you to find out if
that is actually true or not. Make sure to report your finds
back to the list, so other can benefit in the future.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
