Esteemed Koha colleagues,

I recently set up overdue notices via Gmail. Everything seems to be going well 
except for one thing. I have Koha set up to send a friendly reminder on the day 
the item is due. For example, Schooner got this message (condensed to save 
space):

Dear  Schooner,
This is a friendly reminder that the following item(s) you borrowed from the 
library is/are now due:

"Bellevue "
by Oshinsky, David M.
WX 28 .O82 2017
Barcode: 32975000764287

(If the title, author, etc. are blank, please disregard this notice. We're 
trying to figure out why this keeps happening.)
Please return as soon as possible, or contact the library at 202-877-6221, or 
at whclibr...@medstar.net<mailto:whclibr...@medstar.net> if you would like to 
renew it. (Note that reserve books cannot be renewed except under special 
circumstances.)
For after hours returns: There is a book drop in the hallway outside of the 
library (2A43)
Thank you very much for your prompt attention to this matter.

Note: Schooner is my dog, who has no reasonable expectation of privacy 
regarding her book borrowing, so I can identify her by name.

The following day, she got another message:

Dear  Schooner,
This is a friendly reminder that the following item(s) you borrowed from the 
library is/are now due:

This is happening with every friendly reminder that goes out. It's not 
happening with any other notices, and it's using the same template for the 
reminder and the blank one.

Is this happening to anybody else? Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix 
it? I'm stumped.
