Hi
i'd like to send every new member a message after a member regested to inform them the site rule or something else.

How to implement this?

Thanks

Personally do not like such message.
However, it can be done by modifying user.php with some scripts from pmlite.php

It might be better modifying
/language/english/mail_template/register.tpl
to include your site rules. This way, if your potential user did not like your rule , the user would just ignore and not activate the account.

The downside of this is that you would have to clean up unactivated accounts regularly (hope not) depending what kind of rules you put into place.
