Default Vbulletins birthday e-mail, how to change?

I just noticed, when a member has a birthday, they get e-mailed. Is their anyway I can change that text to make it look like the administrators personally took time to right them? As of right now it sort of looks computer generated. I like that feature, because it reminds the member of the forum, and if they think they are getting a personal e-mail from us, their more apt to post and come back.

Does anyone know how to change it?

Thanks,

***EDIT**** See my second post **********

Never mind I figured it out! however, what do you guys think I should say in the new one? To like wish them happy birthday and remind them about the forum and stuff. So they will come back and post. I want it to be moderately long. Not just a few sentences. Remember, I want them to think, we personally took the time to wright them.

Here is what I have so far: (feel free to add to it)


Hello $username, The Staff from $vboptions[bbtitle] would like to wish you a happy birthday today! If you haven't visited the forums lately, come on in and see whats happening!

We hope you have a wonderful day,

Tony, Ricky, and the rest of Muscle-Mustangs.com Staff!

www.muscle-mustangs.com



*note* where $username is will be the username of the person e-mailing
Where $vboptions[bbtitle] will be the name of the forum.
Just so you guys don't get confused or anything.

Feel free to add to it, or change it compeltely, I'd love to see what you all come up with. I really want it to be longer than what I have above!

Well that idea will work for regular members.. BUT, people who don't really know you who have maybe posted a few times and then left will not think you sent it personally. lol! You'll also want to change it each year also.. Also, just wondering, how do you change what it says? I wasn't aware that it sends out an email..
