Unfortunately, I do not know of any way to send notifications to to a group
without defining the host to send notifications to that group.  I'd lean
towards fixing the script so that it writes configurations to contact the
correct group, rather than having it write incorrect configs and then
tweaking Nagios to compensate.

Perhaps you could accomplish this by defining an escalation which skips the
first notification to group C, and then sends only one notification to group
D.  Does your script generate the escalation configs also?
