Since I've never been able to get the user notification email to go out to new users who have been activated by the admin, I always just approve them (make them active) and then send them an email via the Contact tab in their user account. The users get those emails but they never get the automated email that I thought was supposed to be sent to them upon activation.

This only came to a head today when I had about 10 new users to activate and the system told me after 3 users contacted that I had to wait because only 3 contact to user could be made in one hour.

Clearly, my user activation process is faulty. Can anyone help me figure out how to get the automated notification email for newly activated users to work so I can stop notifying them manually?

Thanks, as always, for any help!
