Remarks

The CreateUserWizard class will send an email message confirming that a new Web site account has been created when the MailDefinition property defines an email message to send.

Because the email message only has automatic replacement fields for the user name and password fields, you can use the SendingMail event to modify the email message before it is sent to the new user.
