 * Hello,
    I like to email an excerpt from the message that is placed in the activity
   feed. For example the first 450 characters and then place the read more link.
 * I tried to look for a shortcode to put an excerpt in the email, but I could not
   find it. Is it possible to add this shortcode with a snippet or on an other way.
 * Kind regards,
 * MB
