All messages and subjects for the mail messages are defined as language

change the definition of these strings.
For some mail messages, you can use a couple of special tags in the
message and mailsubject, which are automatically replaced by relevant
data.
Below you'll find a list of the language strings that you can update for
each type of mail message and the special tags that you can use in them.
