link to PM a user in an e-mail template

[heynurse]

I am looking to add a link in the report a post to mod e-mail.

Is there a way to do this?

For example put in a string like:

PM user: $bburl/private.php?s=&action=newmessage&userid=xxxx

but I just don't know how to have it automatically insert the correct userid?

My mods were requesting this so they could PM the person who reported the thread easisly. I hope this makes sense.

Thanks
