You have not added nagios to the entry of your /etc/hosts make this line like this:
<span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D">
<br>
10.5.2.13 <a href="http://nagios.mydomain.com" target="_blank">nagios.mydomain.com</a></span> nagios (i assume your hostname is still nagios right)<br>
<br>
After you have done the above, restart the mail server and then send a mail via cli using the following syntax:<br>
echo "your messages" | mail -s "your subject" <a href="mailto:k.saidi@zantel.co.tz" target="_blank">
k.saidi@zantel.co.tz</a> (hope you have mutt installed, if not install it then run the command). Check whether the mail was delivered. Then we can face nagios
