Go the the CCM > Contacts > Collin Leung > Alert Settings tab > Manage Host Notification Commands > select a command > Add Selected > Close > Save

If Collin Leung is a "xi user" (added via Admin > Manage Users > Add New User), then you need to use xi_host_notification_handler and xi_service_notification_handler commands. If Collin Leung is a "contact only" (added via the CCM > Contacts > Add New), then you need to use notify-host-by-email and notify-service-by-email commands.

Apply configuration. If there are more config errors, you fix them in the CCM too as nagios cannot start/restart with configuration errors.
