Nagios email

[Jon Schneider]

Well I did not have the mail program, so I copied it from another
server, created some symlinks, added the /bin/mail to the command line
in the misccommands.cfg and now its working perfectly, thanks man.

After the | above should read '| /bin/mail -s "... 

Configure must not have been able to find it. Edit the command
definition to correct it. You'd specify the correct path to the 'mail'
program if it's not in /bin of course (or its postfix equivalent).
