    Description

      It would be helpful if the email messages sent by utils.pm::notify() contained more information in the subject and a summary of the reservation details in the body.

      The subject currently contains the file name where the message originated from. It would make human monitoring easier if it also contained the reservation id and possibly some other data.

      Most problems result in multiple CRITICAL notify() messages to be generated in a short amount of time. When you glance at the email messages in your inbox, you can't tell if multiple new messages resulted from the same reservation failing.

      Look at moving notify routine to datastructure.pm or module.pm in order to have access to the datastructure hash. (fapeeler 9/1/2010)
      It can also be difficult to determine the image, user, and computer from the message body. It would be helpful if the beginning of the message contained a summary of this information.
