easiest way would be to use a group member alert and specify the name of the group. Now if each member needs to go to a different person/group, then you'd be better off creating a node custom property called EmailContact, assigning that to the nodes, creating the needed values, then in a node down alert, or any node alert, use the variable ${EmailContact} in the To field and it will then pull the values for the specific node and send that way.
First create the custom property:
Once created, edit the nodes and insert the values for the email address for those devices:
When you configure your alert, you can use that property in the To Field of the email action:
This will allow you to create your alert and have the email trigger to the email address you put into that custom property.
OK so you'll need to be a bit more detailed on what the actual problem is then. The alert looks set up, the property is there, however the nodes are up, so the alert's not going to trigger until one of the nodes in that group goes down.
