Newsletter varialbles

[DrMobius]

Is there a way to send the user there user name?
I've tried quite a few different variants, but there does not seem to be a variable to do this.

Some of my members forget the name they used to login with, it would be nice if I could just send it to them from the newsletter interface.

In this message you can use a few "variables". These are:
{$board_url} - The URL to your forum.
{$current_time} - The current time.
{$member.email} - The current member's email.
{$member.link} - The current member's link.
{$member.id} - The current member's id.
{$member.name} - The current member's name. (for personalization.)
{$latest_member.link} - The most recently registered member's link.
{$latest_member.id} - The most recently registered member's id.
{$latest_member.name} - The most recently registered member's name.

Thanks for any help...

{$member.name} - The current member's name. (for personalization.)

Why won't that do?

Well member name is very good, but if they modify their username to reflect their real name. That is the issue that I have. The member name will get sent but not the actual username.

they can always use their email address as an alternative login

Well thanks abunch. That will work just as well for me.
I did not know that would work. If there is any input into
the next version I think more variables would be nice to have.  Thank you very much.
