In my case, it was because the utils.pm was pointing to a soft-link, rather than the executable. Changing MAILQ in utils.pm to directly point to /usr/bin/exim (I use Debian Lenny, and Exim4 is the MTA). That got me around the above error, but now I get a /usr/bin/exim4 is not executable by (uid xxx:gid(xxx:xxx)) - the UID and GID for nagios. Ugh. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, though. I'll let you know if I find a solution. Cheers, Matt I had a similar problem as Arun.
