There a quite a few email messages that can be automatically sent by the forums:
  • Confirm registration
  • Post-registration welcome message
  • Subscriptions / New posting messages
  • Moved topic
  • Changed password confirmation
  • Topic link
There are probably a few others that I'm missing, but you get the general idea.

Unfortunately, it's rather painful to find and customize these messages within the ASP code. So here's my suggestion:

Consider making all email messages (and, what-the-heck, throw in the privacy message for good measure ) database-driven. Store the basic message in a table, with variables inserted where appropriate (username, email, topic ID, etc.). Allow administrative control over the email title and the body.

That would be a nice touch, don't you think?

Due to the internationalization in V4, all strings are listed in one file. You only need to change the strings in there
