I have set up the mailchimp module with opt-out, but users are not getting the welcome email. Is there a setting somewhere to enable this? I assume it's supported through the API?

Thanks,

Kim

When a user is subscribed through the module, the welcome email send from MC is intentionally suppressed. Imagine registering on a Drupal site and then getting a welcome email from MC. Messaging is all handled via Drupal. You can still use the double opt in setting, though.

This should may be still an option for people who do not need newsletter subscription on user registration.
For now you can just edit line 1116 of MCAPIclass.php

function listSubscribe($id, $email_address, $merge_vars, $email_type='html', $double_optin=true, $update_existing=false, $replace_interests=true, $send_welcome=false) {

to

function listSubscribe($id, $email_address, $merge_vars, $email_type='html', $double_optin=true, $update_existing=false, $replace_interests=true, $send_welcome=true) {

works for me

Hi,
I am experiencing this issue and have changed the API ($send_welcome=true) but still no emails are going out when people sign up. Are there any other work arounds for this?
