    I have wordpress installed and running successfully and I have it setup where I have to manually add new users/blogs from the main Admin dashboard and this works fine except the user who I create the blog for recieves 2 emails (one from wordpress and another from our sitename) with pretty much the same information and I was wanting to know how I can stop the one from wordpress being sent out.

    Thanks,

    If you're creating the user first and then the blog, then yes - it will send two emails.

    If you create a blog for a nonexistent user, it will create a new user as well.

    I am creating the blog for a nonexistent user and your reply seems to be saying that it should not be doing this however it is so is there anyway to stop this from happening ?

    Basically the only email I want to be sent is the "welcome email" I define in the wpmu admin control panel if that helps at all. I don't mind editing the php code and am fairy comfortable in that environment just not sure which file I need to edit.

    Thanks,

    If you create a blog for a non-existent user, then two emails will get sent: one for the blog creation and one for the user creation. There's not really a way around this without either first creating the user (which will generate the email anyway) or by hacking WordPress core files (which isn't usually a good thing).
