Take a look at : /email/email_template_welcome.php for structure

also

/includes/languages/english/email_extras.php

you can also edit it here:

includes/languages/english/create_account.php


Be careful and always select all text and copy to notepad or something. If you start deleting lines of info be careful what you delete

here is a sample of what mine looks like. I wanted to just say a few things to my new customers.

// greeting salutation
define('EMAIL_SUBJECT', 'Welcome to ' . STORE_NAME);

you can change the email subject quickly above


// First line of the greeting
define('EMAIL_WELCOME', 'You may now start downloading XXXXX from <strong>' . STORE_NAME . '</strong>.');


Thats pretty much all I wanted to say.

I deleted the text from the lines below. Make sure you keep the "\n\n"); stuff.
Otherwise, you'll get errors :)

define('EMAIL_TEXT', '' . "\n\n");
define('EMAIL_CONTACT', '' . "\n\n");
define('EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE','' . "\n\n");
