I agree with Ilya,
it may be easier to use some template engine for this.
For example, we're using StringTemplate.
The only issue when using external template engine is creating URLs to the
application, because you may be sending emails out of web request scope
and LinkSourceImpl won't work without request. We ended with implementing
our own OfflineLinkSource for this purpose.
