How to customize the Email subject ?

The standard Email notification subject includes the bug id and the bug summary.
It could be of much help to be able to include a custom field into the Email subject. For example the Reporter name.
Is that possible?
Many thanks,

No it is not possible (unless you patch the code).

Hi deboutv,
Can you be a bit more specific?!

You need to do some changes in the core files (core/email_api.php). .

Check email_build_subject() in core/mail_api.php. It should be easy to change it there.

No, this function is only used when a reminder is sent...
I'm working to integrate this request in my HTMLmail plugin (
