[support] mail issue: new user registration email not being sent

Wed Oct 5 13:44:31 UTC 2011

Just to follow up on this thread, I tracked down my problem.  There was a
custom module being used that redirected users at login.  I turned it off
and new user registration email resumed.  I have not had a chance to debug
the module yet, only briefly looking at it, comments indicate that it is an
"Implementation of hook_user()".

I'll likely just leave it off for now and instead work to move our site to
Drupal 7.x.
