Usually, the commands that create the notifications rely on the printf 
command. Just look up how your notification commands are defined - they 
are just commands as all the check commands.

You will - probably - find something like 'printf "something" | mail -s 
Nagios $some_address$' in there.

Then, understand Nagios' macros (described in the manual) and how the 
command printf works (man printf on the shell should help).
