Item14744: access the recpient's wiki name in email templates

While we have access to the recpipient's email address using %EMAILTO we lack access to the WikiName even though available as part of the change set.

Proposal: add %NAME%

Note that we can't call it %WIKINAME% as thats the name of the user executing the mailnotify script.
