We are using the CB private message system and are trying to modify the content of the email that is sent to a user when they have received a private message.

We are modifying in language overrides the constant FROM_HAS_SENT_MESSAGE

We want to include things such as the recipient's name and username in the email, but it seems that substitutions do not work. For example, include [firstname] or [lastname] or [username] in the body of the email are not being replaced.

How can we modify the content of the FROM_HAS_SENT_MESSAGE email to use CB substitutions?

It also appears that these mails are in HTML format, which we cannot seem to control. But in other places in CB when we have the choice of plain text or HTML email it is suggested that HTML not be used to avoid mail as potentially marked as spam. Is there a reason that this particular mail message is HTML? The problem is that the text that is in EMAIL_NOTE_AUTOMATIC_GENERATION override, which is not HTML, does not render properly at the end of these email messages.

HTML only emails are fine and will become the default behavior for all future emails. What about EMAIL_NOTE_AUTOMATIC_GENERATION isn't rendering properly?

It loses all line returns.

For all of our other plain text emails, it renders like this:

But in this particular New Private Message notification email, it looks like this:

I have tried adding \r\n to the EMAIL_NOTE_AUTOMATIC_GENERATION text where line returns should be, but it does not change anything.
