My email body is like "Hello [user:name], blablablala -- Team [site:name]".

Answer 1

You need to run token_replace on the email body and pass in the user object for the target user. In your function: $global $user;

$emluser = user_load($user->uid);
$body = "Hello [user:name], blablablala -- Team [site:name]";
$body = token_replace($body, array('user' => $emluser));

You don't need to pass anything for the site tokens to be replaced.
