Because Nagios is stripping HTML characters out of the $SERVICEOUTPUT$ macro for security reasons (and rightly so, since the notify-service-by-email command is directly echoing its contents to a command line string). This is resulting in the HTML link that we've embedded in the $SERVICEOUTPUT$ from a custom plugin getting broken in our email alerts. I figured that by replacing the command line string with a call to the (slightly customized) HTML e-mail plugin I might be able to get the HTML links working again.
