Due to some weird and slightly bent way of passing errors between
processes, return code 126 means "Operation not permitted". In
english, that means the script is not executable, or one of the
directories leading up to it isn't readable by the Nagios user.
Run this command (as root):
chmod 0755 /usr/local/nagios/libexec/send_mail.pl
(correct the path if necessary)
and things just might start working a little better.

Thanks Andreas,
I that fixed the code 126. The nagios.log has no errors now. I am
still not getting any notifications, but I can troubleshoot further. I
am curious about one thing. The send_mail.pl script specifies a mailto
address in the SMTP setting "my $mailto = [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The contacts.cfg also specifies an email address in the define_contacts{
section. I guess I am wondering which one it uses to determine where to
send the notification.
