Hello Nagios users,

I've got Nagios set up, evrything seems OK. BUT, when a service is down, I don't get an email.

contacts.cfg is like (and that's not the actual email address in there):
define contact{
        contact_name                    jim
        alias                           Jim
        service_notification_period     workhours
        host_notification_period        workhours
        service_notification_options    c,r
        host_notification_options       d,r
        service_notification_commands   notify-by-email
        host_notification_commands      host-notify-by-email
        email                           [EMAIL PROTECTED]
}

contactgroups.cfg:
define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       admins
        alias                   Administrators
        members                 jim
}

a typical service definition:
define service{
        use                             generic-service
        host_name                       duran
        service_description             HTTP
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              5
        normal_check_interval           7
        retry_check_interval            3
        contact_groups                  admins
        notification_interval           120
        notification_period             24x7
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        check_command                   check_http
        }

I can send mail from the command line on this machine to the email address specified in the hosts.cfg. No errors in nagios.log. Can anyone suggest where else to look?

Thanks very much,
