auth.messages.verify_email = 'Click on the link http://' +
request.env.http_host +
URL(r=request,c='default',f='user',args=['verify_email']) + '/%(key)s
to verify your email'
auth.messages.reset_password = 'Click on the link http://' +
request.env.http_host +
URL(r=request,c='default',f='user',args=['reset_password']) + '/%(key)s to
reset your password'
replace request.env.http_host with your own and voilà.
