SmartQuotas provides email templates for advisory, grace, and regular notification configuration, which can be found under /etc/ifs. The advisory limit email template (/etc/ifs/quota_email_advisory_template.txt) for example, displays:

The <ISI_QUOTA_DOMAIN_TYPE> quota on path <ISI_QUOTA_PATH> owned by <ISI_QUOTA_OWNER> has exceeded the <ISI_QUOTA_TYPE> limit.
The quota limit is <ISI_QUOTA_THRESHOLD>, and <ISI_QUOTA_USAGE> is currently in use. <ISI_QUOTA_HARD_LIMIT> Contact your system administrator for details.
