Well, you are getting just exactly what you told the mail command to send 
you, the words "Link Down".  That's what your message said.
If you want more, then you have to send more.  Try something like this:
        -message "Cisco_Link_Down trap received from agent $A with $# 
arguments: 
ifIndex=$1;  ifDescr=$2;  ifType=$3;  locIfReason=$4"

        Subject:        Tivoli Netview NVmail problem.



I am using TIVOLI NetView ver 7.1.2 with NT server 4.0.

I have a problem of not getting the Alerts mail with Node IP address and 
correct time.
Here are the Description, command to run when event occur and output mail 
which I am getting.
I also used the $A attribute but all in vain.

Need assistance in this regard.
Plz do tell me the syntax in the Description and Command to run in the 
Trap configuration




description : Cisco_Link_Down trap received from enterprise $E with $# 
arguments:  ifIndex=$1;  ifDescr=$2;  ifType=$3;  locIfReason=$4
Command to run : nvmail -server cdc_khi_nt1 -recipient 
muhammad_ali AT cdcpak DOT com -subject "Mail through Netview Regarding Routers
