What is the tag for "Recipient Agents" when setting up Event-Based Notifications?

What is the tag for "Recipient Agents" when setting up Event-Based Notifications?

I have tried the following tags and they are not yielding the expected results:

<OTRS_AGENT_UserFirstname>
<OTRS_FIRST_NAME>
<OTRS_CURRENT_UserFirstname>

Any ideas? I have looked through the documentation for OTRS and this forum as well.

That's not cool :( Is there any way for me to create my own tag?

Describe how you would expect this tag to be useful, how it would be comprised, and why you feel that exposing the membership list in an email is a good idea.

Well I want to be able to greet the recipient agent, via the event-based notification module, with his/her first name. That makes the notification more personal and more meaningful.

Can I send a notification to the recipient agent today without greeting him/her with his/her first name? Yes.

Do I think being able to send a notification to the recipient agent and greeting him/her with his/her first name makes the notification more personal and more meaningful and therefore more likely he/she will actually read its contents? Yes.

All I need is the agent's first name, last name, and title. With reference to exposing the membership list, if I have an option to send a notification to agents then I should be able to address them as well. Just my two cents :)

So, you don't want a recipient list. You want to provide a merged salutation/greeting for individual recipients.
