How to customize content of this email ?

Answer 1

You need to hook up your own reset password serializer (PASSWORD_RESET_SERIALIZER) with customized save method.

(ref: https://github.com/Tivix/django-rest-auth/blob/v0.6.0/rest_auth/serializers.py#L123)

Unfortunately you need to override the whole save method, due to how the e-mail options are used. We we'll make it a bit more flexible in the next release (0.7.0)
