What is your definition for rechecks and notification intervals ,and
first and last notifications ( see service and service escalation
definitions )?
Also how many issue does your system has that are un handled that nagios
is producing so many alerts ?

I have sendmail setup to use our smtp server as a forwarder. This has
been working great so far. The only issue I am seeing is, outside
email addresses such as a cell number @vtext.com <http://vtext.com> is
having messages sent to it several times a second; until Verizon
finally rate limits the messages. This in turn queues up the
messages, and a large number come through again. This does NOT happen
with any internal email addresses. If I check the mail log, I can see
Nagios sending the message several times a second to only outside
email addresses and only once to internal email addresses.
I am not sure what the issue is.
I will give you a sample of my config
define contact{
name generic-contact ; The
name of this contact template
service_notification_period 24x7 ;
service notifications can be sent anytime
host_notification_period 24x7 ; host
notifications can be sent anytime
service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f,s ; send
notifications for all service states, flapping events, and scheduled
downtime events
host_notification_options d,u,r,f,s ; send
notifications for all host states, flapping events, and scheduled
downtime events
service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email ; send
service notifications via email
host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email ; send
host notifications via email
register 0 ; DONT
REGISTER THIS DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL CONTACT, JUST A TEMPLATE!
}
define contact{
contact_name guys-cell
use generic-contact
alias John Doe
email xxx8777...@vtext.com <mailto:xxx8777...@vtext.com>
}
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name network-admin
alias Switches and networking admins
members guys-cell
}
Thanks
