Steps to Reproduce

1. Startup Liferay
2. Navigate to Control Panel > Configuration > System Settings > Comments

      ${server-property://com.liferay.portal/admin.email.from.name}
      

   2. Click Save
   3. Click the Triple Dot menu on the top-right
   4. Click Export
3. Copy the exported config file: com.liferay.comment.configuration.CommentGroupServiceConfiguration.config to ${LIFERAY_HOME}/osgi/configs
4. Wait ~10 seconds for Liferay to import the config file
5. Navigate to Control Panel > Configuration > System Settings > Comments
   1. Notice the value for: Email from Name

Expected Behavior:
Value for Email from Name is

${server-property://com.liferay.portal/admin.email.from.name}

Alternative Steps to Reproduce
1. Add the following line to your portal-ext.properties:

discussion.email.body=${resource:email_templates/comment/discussion_email_body.tmpl}

2. Place attached discussion_email_body.ympl in LIFERAY_HOME/TOMCAT_FOLDER/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes/email_templates/comment/ (folder must be created)
3. Start bundle and go to Control Panel -> Configuration -> System settings -> Social -> Comments
4. Change the value of property "Email Discussion Comment Added Body" to "${server-property://com.liferay.portal/discussion.email.body}" and save.
5. Export this config and place the resulting config file into LIFERAY_HOME/osgi/configs folder.
6. Restart the server and go to the same system configuration again.

Expected behavior: Value of the property "Email Discussion Comment Added Body" is "${server-property://com.liferay.portal/discussion.email.body}".

Experience behavior: Value of property is blank. (Actually all fields are blank)
