You've told it not to. See below.

For host_notification_options and service_notification_options, 'n'
means don't send _any_ notifications. Remove it and restart nagios.

host_notification_options: 	This directive is used to define the
host states for which notifications can be sent out to this contact.
Valid options are a combination of one or more of the following: d =3D
notify on DOWN host states, u =3D notify on UNREACHABLE host states, and =
r
=3D notify on host recoveries (UP states). *****If you specify n (none) =
as
an option, the contact will not receive any type of host
notifications.*****

service_notification_options: 	This directive is used to define the
service states for which notifications can be sent out to this contact.
Valid options are a combination of one or more of the following: w =3D
notify on WARNING service states, u =3D notify on UNKNOWN service =
states,
c =3D notify on CRITICAL service states, and r =3D notify on service
recoveries (OK states). *****If you specify n (none) as an option, the
contact will not receive any type of service notifications.*****
