I create two Nagios contacts for each person at my site, one for
email alerts and one for SMS alerts.  I then place the appropriate
contacts in each contactgroup, according to which type of alert
should be sent.

   Then, for each host/service, I include the appropriate
contactgroups.  For example, my Exchange servers' CPU services
get the exchange-admins-email contactgroup, which only sends
email to their contacts.  The Exchange servers' database
services, however, get the exchange-admins-pagers group, so they
get SMS'ed for database problems.
