You get what you deserve.
Ever considered that quoting a FULL digest just to post 3
sentences - which are not even related to the digest - "might"
be a bad idea and wind up a few people?

But then, you didn't post any informations on what you checked already.
So we are still unknowing where to search for your problem.
Does Nagios not _send_ the notification, or does it take 5 minutes until
it reaches you? Or does Nagios delay sending the notification?
How do you measure the time, when the service goes down, or when
Nagios puts the service into a HARD CRITICAL state?
That's a lot of questions and I'm afraid, noone can answer your
questions until you provide more information.

notification_interval has nothing to do with delay of the first 
notification. It indicates how long
Nagios will wait until sending out the _next_ standard notification.
