Is there a way to remove or change the system name in the subject line of emailed reports?

I have a daily report where the subject line starts with "[PRTG Network Monitor (PRTG)]" followed by the report name. My problem is that, at a glance, the system name takes up all the space in the notification pop up, so I don't know if it is a routine report, or something more important. I have to open each one to find out.

I found a way to change the subject line in alarm notifications- I removed the variable %sitename under notifications. But, I cannot find a corresponding setting for Reports.

If I could shorten the system name from PRTG Network Monitor (PRTG), to say, just PRTG, that would work, too.

Hello there,

Thanks for the KB post.

I am afraid there is no option from the settings to change the report email subject. There is some alternative to change it in the program code but it's not officially supported and I wouldn't do it if I were a user because it might break PRTG.
