All the emails sent out by the Telligent Evolution platform can be customized, both how they look and what information they contain. In the email templates, tokens are used to specify information. When the email is sent, the tokens are replaced by the correct values they represent (i.e. $Subject -> "Subject of blog post"). Each template has a different set of tokens that are available to it, along with several global tokens that are available to all templates.
