$CONTACTEMAIL$.

With Nagios-2, $CONTACTEMAIL$ isn't available for event handlers, only
notifications. See the chart at
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html. I can't offer any
suggestions other than creating your own special file with that
information and grep it from there when needed or parsing the nagios
config files to obtain it.

With nagios-3, that information is available with the new
$CONTACTGROUPMEMBERS$ macro.
