XF 2.2 Sent email to members, placeholder did not get replaced

I just sent a plain text email via ACP > Communication > Email users to members of my forum. I started the email body with:
Hi [name],

i expected that XF would replace [name] with a member's user name when the email was sent. That didn't happen though. The emails were sent with "Hi [name],". Embarrassing.

How can I fix this so future emails replace the placeholder correctly?

Code:

Well poop. Getting old sucks. The light colored text in the ACP looked like square brackets to me. I should have put my readers on I guess.
