Forward Email Template

Hi,

I created a cck field that handle's my site's teasers and I have been able to call the field from other modules (i.e. pdfview, print-friendly-pages), but I can't seem to get it to work with the Forward module.

When you forward a node to an email address, it sends the teaser text in the email. I would like to replace that teaser text with my cck teaser text. Below are the methods I used with the two other modules that worked.

pdfview.module - this code places the teaser above the rest of the body content when it converts the document to a pdf file.

$content = drupal_render($node->content['field_teaser']); 
$content .= drupal_render($node->content['body']);

print.tpl.php - this code places the teaser above the rest of the body when generating a print friendly page.

<div class="print-content"><?php  print $node->content['field_teaser']['#value']; ?><?php  print $node->content['body']['#value']; ?></div>

but.........

the Forward Module has two parts to its email teaser generation. The first part is in forward.module and the second is in forward.theme

forward.module

else {
    $nid = $edit['nid'];
    $emailtype = 'email';
    //Get article information.
    $content = node_load($nid);
    $content->teaser = check_markup($content->teaser, $content->format, false); //The line i'm trying to modify
    $returnurl = drupal_get_path_alias('node/'. $nid);
  }

forward.theme

<div class="article">'.$vars['content']->teaser.'</div> //The other line im trying to modify

So I've tried so many different things, but I can't seem to get it on this module.

I know just enough php to get me into trouble, or to help me fix things by trial and error =(

Any help is highly appreciated =) Thanks in advance!
