Plimus lets you customize the order e-mail that gets sent to customers after they purchase a product. What's some good text to place in the e-mail, or is the default text good enough? (insert subtle fishing for people to post their own e-mail text)

I hate automated emails. Everyone does. So I tried to keep it friendly, personal, and make a point of the fact that it's automated. It begins with:

Dear <CUSTOMER_FIRST_NAME>,

Ha ha! That’s clever, isn’t it? It looks exactly like I’ve handcrafted this email to you personally. Sadly, the truth is that it’s just an automated template that everyone receives, but that doesn’t mean I love you any less for having purchased a copy of Gibbage...

And then continues with more along the same line, with instructions on how to get the actual game.
