This answer didn't clear things up for me.
I know there is an email called customers_authorization.php in the languages/english folder which has the wording:
"Thank you for requesting Authorization for our store. We will contact you as soon as possible."

I have the authorisation setting set to 2, ie customers may browse but can't see prices or place an order until authorised. But when I create a test account for myself, I get sent the usual welcome email that makes it sound like I can now do anything. I don't get the email above.
Is there another setting somewhere I have missed? How can I get the authorisation email sent out instead?
