127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost

10.5.2.13      nagios.mydomain.com<http://nagios.mydomain.com>

You have not added nagios to the entry of your /etc/hosts   make this line like this:
10.5.2.13      nagios.mydomain.com<http://nagios.mydomain.com>    nagios     (i assume your hostname is still nagios right)

After you have done the above, restart the mail server and then send a mail via cli using the following syntax:
echo "your messages" | mail -s "your subject" k.saidi at zantel.co.tz<mailto:k.saidi at zantel.co.tz>   (hope you have mutt installed, if not install it then run the command). Check whether the mail was delivered. Then we can face nagios

Cheers!
