My Postfix e-mail commands look like this, with slightly different syntax:

# NEW 'notify-host-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-host-by-email
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Subject:** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$
Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ **\n***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification
Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" |
/usr/sbin/sendmail $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }

# NEW 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-service-by-email
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Subject:** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$
Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **\n***** Nagios
*****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState:
$SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /usr/sbin/sendmail $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }
