Is it possible to send welcome emails to different kinds of groups like eg. army, navy, airforce by a choice variable they answer in the registration form??
Another question is: If somebody registers we want to send them a personal pdf with there confirmation. They have to sign the form, can it and then return it to us (or upload). Reason: the bank needs a signed document to automatically get our yearly subscription from there account
