using variables with nvmail

[Kem Shin <KemS@fool.com>]

I am using NetView 6.0 on NT4 svpk6, 
and trying to configure nvmail generate the email 
        when a trap is received. 

The proper syntax suggested by Tivoli support is:

nvmail  -server         thesmtpserver
        -subject                "node down $2"
        -message        "take a look at node $2 "

using the above syntax, 
i am receiving emails with the text $2,
 instead of the ip address of the trap source. 

Does anyone know what the proper syntax is for
