[TYPO3-english] Send e-mail upon frontend user creation

That should be pretty easy to achieve with a custom extension and a hook 
[1].

Have a look at the TCEmain [2], there you can get all the data entered 
by the BE user (probably by using the 
processDatamap_preProcessFieldArray hook).
Later just create a SwiftMailer instance to send an email.

Kind regards
Steffen
