    It seems with IC there is always a way and I came
up with something that seems to work.

    I modified new_account.html to require an email
address. Then with success the next page becomes
welcome_new_customer.html.  This file basically
generates an email to the new user and then bounces
them to the account page.  Of course you could
bounce them anywhere such as a welcome
splash page as some one else has suggested; good idea.
