This is the command i have in and  that i keep getting the same errors
but "printf" that shouldnt matter because why would it work in general for
host down noticifations

Here is the command i have in now:

define command {
  command_name                   host-notify-by-email
  command_line                   /bin/echo -e "Subject:
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - Host $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$\n\n*****
Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost:
$HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo:
$HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAcknowledged By:
$HOSTACKAUTHOR$\nAcknowledgement: $HOSTACKCOMMENT$" | /bin/mail
$CONTACTEMAIL$
  }

What is the full config entry for that command? I fear you are not using
printf when you should be.
