nagios3: notify-host-by-email: $CONTACTEMAIL$ not expanded

[Marc Lucke]

Hi all,

I'm at my whit's end with this & am hoping one of you will have seen
this before.  I've googled for it and come up with close, but not the
answer:

debug log shows:

-----
[1327031437.121800] [2048.0] [pid=17470]  WARNING: An error occurred
processing macro 'CONTACTEMAIL'!
[1327031437.121807] [2048.1] [pid=17470]   Done.  Final output:
'/usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nSent to:
$CONTACTEMAIL$\n\nNotification Type: \nHost: vpsau01\nState:
UP\nAddress: localhost\nInfo: PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 0.05
ms\n\nDate/Time: Fri Jan 20 14:50:37 EST 2012\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s
"**  Host Alert: vpsau01 is UP **" $CONTACTEMAIL$'

The $CONTACTEMAIL$ is not being expanded whilst everything else is.

version: Nagios Core 3.3.1
dist: debian squeeze

config: contacts.cfg:

define contact {
        contact_name                    nagiosadmin
        alias                           Nagios Admin
        contactgroups                   null

        host_notification_period        24x7
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_options       d,u,r,f,s
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r,f,s
        host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-email
        service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-email
        can_submit_commands             1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    1
        email                           my at email.address
        register                        1
        }

Any thoughts appreciated.
