check_nt and output

[Casey Stamper]

When I use the following command in services.cfg:

# Service definition
define service{
  use       generic-service   ; Name of service template to use

  host_name     ohpiv1tigq04
  service_description   ntdiskc
  is_volatile     0
  check_period      24x7
  max_check_attempts    3
  normal_check_interval   5
  retry_check_interval    1
  contact_groups      nt-admins
  notification_interval   120
  notification_period   24x7
  notification_options    w,u,c,r
  check_command     check_nt_disk!c!80!90
  }

taken from the commands.cfg line:

command[check_nt_disk]=$USER1$/check_nt -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -p 1248 -v
USEDDISKSPACE -l $ARG1$ -w $ARG2$ -c $ARG3$

I get the following output in the web interface and at the command line:

c:\ - total: 3.96 Gb - used: 3.19 Gb (81%) - free 0.77 Gb (19%) 

but when using this command in miscommands.cfg:

# 'notify-by-email' command definition
define command{
  command_name  notify-by-email
  command_line  /usr/bin/printf "%b"
"$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n$SERVICEDESC$\n$HOSTALIAS$\n$SERVICESTATE$\n$SHORTDATET
IME$\n$OUTPUT$" | /bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$-
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
  }

my notification email looks like this:

As you can see, all test after the "\" character is cut off. I know that's
because the "\" character needs a delimiter but I've tried putting  the
delimiter in the notify-by-email command definition in several different
places but it didn't work. Anybody?
