Send users an email when their account is created #1516

Open annamorphism opened 1 month ago

I believe on OldCantus there was an option Debras could check when creating a user that would send an email notifying them that they now had a Cantus account. I don't think such an option exists anymore, so Debras have to then email users to let them know that their account exists and that they should try logging in, changing their password, etc. Is that the case? And if it is the case, is that by design? (It doesn't seem like a big problem, since by definition there has already been some conversation requesting the account...)

I don't see anything in the codebase that suggests that they should so I think things are working "as intended" -- whether that was indeed intentional or just an oversight, I don't know. I don't immediately see any issues where that was discussed.

This seems like it could be an enhancement?

Going to turn this into a low-priority enhancement.
