If this is so you can provide a custom string every time, the more standard
approach is to define a string resource:
"This is a {0} for you"

And then use:
String.Format(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture, "This is a {0} for you", "mig");
(the culture stuff isn't required, but FxCop will flag that if you don't)

I didn't completely understood what you explain but basically I am
sending an email to a user which asked to reset its password so I want
to replace in a standard text the user name and the new generated
password.

Thanks,
Miguel
