 * Is it possible to modify the “New User Registration” email that gets sent to 
   the administrator? On one of the sites I manage, a block of people have the ability
   to add new users.
 * Is it possible to make it look something like the text below?
 *     ```
       New user registration on your site [Site]:
   
       Username: [New User]
   
       E-mail: [New Email]
   
       Created By: [Existing Username]
       ```

 * So I found the function which sends the email. I tried $current_user but that
   does not work. Any ideas?
 * `$message .= sprintf(__('Created By: %s'), $current_user) . "\r\n";`

 * Figured it out. Needed a global $current_user; at the top, and a reference to
   $current_user->user_login.
 * Cheers
