See attached. This might explain it further. I am a member of only one of the email groups.

Thanks for that.
I have ran those commands but unfortunately, it did not make a difference.

I would look at the APS & Infrastructure Users by masquerading as them, then clicking on the username in the top right corner and checking the email address. Verify that the addresses that are listed are not the same OR aren't for distribution lists that you are a part of both of....

Thanks for your reply.
I have checked these settings and the addresses are correct. It seems all the more confusing in that not all the servers atht have this configration (2 contact groups) exhibit the problem. Some of them report notifications correctly.
I also tried removing the hosts totally from the database but it does not seem to work everytime. Not certain what else to check.
Server has also been rebooted but that has not fixed it either.

Are the email addresses distribution lists?
If so, does everyone get duplicates?

After running service nagios stop the output is:
nagios 8698 1 5 08:33 ? 00:00:13 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
root 22608 26159 0 08:37 pts/0 00:00:00 grep bin/nagios
Does this look better?
