I'm writing a perl script that will be called as an event handler for a

debugging output and email it to the contact group for the down host.
You're aware that this is what the contact object and such are for, right?
The problem is that the contact group macro ($CONTACTEMAIL$) isn't
available to event handlers.
Does anyone have a suggestion on how I might determine the contact email
for a host in such a case?
You can do it in a number of obscure and ridiculous ways, all of which
involve external files or weird name-standards.
The easiest is probably to set your script as notification command for a
contact. This will nicely bypass all the troubles (and be sane at the
same time).
