modifying email alerts : Defaults do not suffice

[Trevor Warren]

Morning Friends,

 I have been a user of nagios for quite some time now. At one of my
customers locations we are having issues with the email alerts being
obtained from NAGIOS. If you see the emails Nagios is sending out you
will notice that there is no information of the service which has gone
down but only a change of state to "State : DOWN".

 This is getting a little painful since these alerts are sent to VP's
and MD's of the organisation and i would like to send across alerts
with the right information in it.

 Plese check these emails below and suggest what modification in need
to perform in the "misccommands" file to have the emails send out
proper "Service" information.

 Thanks in advance friends.

Trevor
