Hi todd,

I understand now what is your trouble :)

If only you can be replied, i think a mail alias is enough.
In that case, all email sent from your monitoring host will be sent back
to you not taking care of nagios at west.westgazer.com.

I checked on my environment, it works :-)


Hope this helps,

Chris
