Nagios email notification, nothing for "aditional information" section.

Hello,

I recently re-installed my Nagios environment and recently found that using my old configuration that used to work, is not working now; more specifically the email notification parsing seems to not send information regarding "additional information" part.

Example email notification message that I receive:


***** Nagios *****



Notification Type: PROBLEM



Service: DB Log Watch oppy1

Host: van-oppy

Address: 172.16.4.14

State: CRITICAL



Date/Time: Tue Feb 15 11:06:26 PST 2011



Additional Info:

There is nothing in for additional information, below is the email notification command being used:

define command{
        command_name notify-host-by-email
        command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }

define command{
        command_name notify-service-by-email
        command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$

Any help on troubleshooting this?

Thank you!
