> -larryWhen you use the stock d.c.a.password_reset view, one of the arguments you can provide is a custom Form class to handle the password reset. You would provide this as an additional argument supplied in the urlconf. The form is what actually sends the email, in the save() method, so by sub-classing the default form, and overriding the save() method, you can handle how the email is produced. You would need to duplicate most of the logic from the default form's save() method, unfortunately.
