 * That is something that should be possible, I will take a look and see if I can
   add it. It would be a keyword like %POST_AUTHOR%.

 * hey. thanks. fixed it in the meantime.
 * just added to email-users.php
    function mailusers_replace_post_templates($text,
   $post_title, $post_author, $post_excerpt, $post_url) { $text = preg_replace( ‘/%
   POST_AUTHOR%/’, mailusers_preg_quote($post_author), $text );
 * and to email_users_notify_form.php:
    $post_author = get_userdata( $post->post_author)-
   > display_name;
 * $subject = mailusers_replace_post_templates($subject, $post_title, $post_author,
   $post_excerpt, $post_url);
    $mail_content = mailusers_replace_post_templates(
   $mail_content, $post_title, $post_author, $post_excerpt, $post_url);
 * but really great plugin.
