No, I've never seen a random notification from Nagios ever.  It's always 
notified as configured.

Chances are you've got one of a few things going on:

a) You *have* told Nagios to notify on recovery states, either in the 
host definition or in an escalation definition (which would be easy to 
verify if you showed how you've configured those), or

b) You've got a couple instances of Nagios running at the same time, and 
one of them is running with an old configuration that did specify to 
notify on recovery, or

c) You've got mail backed up on some box somewhere (which should be 
obvious from looking at timestamps and headers on the messages), or

d) Some combination of the above.
