Re: [Nagios-devel] no macro for nagios server itself ?

Hi Guillaume,
You're correct. Nagios in it's initial setup state doesn't send mails
out (you have to configure the mail/notification commands yourself.)
Therefore to add additional information such as a URL to Nagios and a
customised sender string, you would need to build these into your solution.
You could also have used the $ADMINEMAIL$ macro (which is the value of
the admin_email configuration directive) as the sender string in your
mail command, but a USER macro does just fine too.
