This is what I have in my config file for notify-service-by email as
well as host

I have postfix up and running, yet Nagios still won't alert, what is
wrong with this?


Command_line	mail "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type:
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState:
$HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" | -s "**
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$

I'm noticing this the more I work on it. I can get it to send emails out
just testing, but my nagios configuration won't send them out. I've
defined /usr/sbin/postfix inside commands.cfg instead of the default
...../printf thing that was in there. Should I have not done that?

If that's the case, then the default notification commands from the
example configs should work fine. Assuming Postfix is correctly
configured to send mail from local accounts, there's no real difference
between using it as your MTA versus with any other.
