How to dynamically alter content of an email notification

We are trying to add some custom text to the email notifcation sent when someone "replies"  in forums/blogs. Does someone know how this can be done? Note that the custom text is dynamic based on the "reply" text/parameters (we will fetch this text from our servers and will append to the email).

    This can be done by altering the email templates, which are scripted with NVelocity and have access to contextual data about their content.

    If you haven't already seen it, I recommend this guide to customizing email templates in Developer Space as a good starting point:

    Hope this helps!
