Is there any way to get the node type as a variable in the template e-mail at admin/settings/comment_notify?

I'm thinking about using comments as answers on my site and I'd like to be able to use "answer" instead of "comments" (eg. for Q&A section). The reason I don't just put "answers" in my body text is because I also have comments on another section of the site. So, I'm trying to find a way that would let me switch between answers and comments based on content type.

I'd also like to be able to dynamically change the subject header based on content type too.

Am I using the right tool for such a thing? At the end of the day, I'm looking for a customizable module that allows me to set different settings based on content type for a notification system for new comments.

Thank you!

I'm looking for such a feature too. I think there should be an option to have different settings for different node comments.

For 7.x this is now possible by creating a token using the token system. For 6.x I don't plan to work on this and am therefore marking it "by design" but if someone else provided a patch I would consider applying it.
