That looks fine to me. The problem is in your host-notify-by-email 
definition in the misccommands.cfg file. If you look below you have;

  Host Unreachable (10.10.4.89)\n\nDate/Time: Fri Feb 16 09:10:01 CST
 > 2007\n" |  -s "Host DOWN alert for relay-1.domain.com!" admin at domain.com"

Where it should read;

 > Host Unreachable (10.10.4.89)\n\nDate/Time: Fri Feb 16 09:10:01 CST
 > 2007\n" | mail -s "Host DOWN alert for relay-1.domain.com!" 
admin at domain.com"


Looks like a copy and paste error. Oh and you probably also want to use 
something other than your 'admin at lctn' account. It's like sending from 
root at localhost.localdomain :P

Cheers,
Gavin
