This comes out as "Dear John Smith" which is a bit formal. I would prefer "Dear John". I'm aware of this parameter $usefirstlastname=TRUE; but my question is, if I use this, can I then use the first name only on the email? If so, what placeholder would I use Eg would %firstname% work? Thank you Ellen
