Found on each submission's modal, in the email composer panel. The Template dropdown there (Rejection Reasons, Bounty Payment Sent, Fill Payment Form, Payment Details Received) fills these in automatically with real values — no raw tags to resolve.
Custom Emails (the "To" field above, for arbitrary addresses) don't support merge tags since there's no submission or subscriber record tied to those email addresses — write those manually.
