$( date ) will add the current date and time. You can read the man page
for date to find out how to format it so that it only shows the date or
only the time or both, etc.
$( ) will start a sub-shell that runs whatever commands you put between
the $( and ).
So you could do:
msg="The user ${LOGNAME} has logged into $( hostname ) at $( date )."
