Can anyone tell me how to format the “Status Information” and “Performance Data” sections of the nagios email alert? I have alot of data being reported and it’s all being presented in on one line for both sections. These are passive alerts being sent by NSCA. Here’s an example alert being generated:
Service State Information

for “Performance Data” section, i’d like to have the format carriage return where i currently have
placing this data on separate lines. For “Status Information”, I also want to have carriage returns. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
