The relationship is following:
notif-escalator -- is in charge of tracking alerts and sends and doing 
the escalation.
notif-launcher -- reads new alers from inbound queue, process redirects 
and register the alerts and initial sends with the notif-escalator
notifier -- remote program, which pools the notif-escalator for new 
sends and deliver these sends via smtp and snmp (via database and scout).

So my guess is that notif-launcher is somehow broken. If I had to guess 
-- I would check if notif-launcher check for correct directory.

Unfortunately I have currently no time to investigate it myself.
