You can't send the password in the welcome email. It's sent after the encryption has taken place. The only time it can be sent in welcome email is if the welcome email isn't delayed by confirmation or admin approval.

hallo there!

oh i understand. Yes the welcome email is sent after the user has activate his registration through the activation link. So there is no way to pass the password if i understand right?

thank you

Correct, the password has become encrypted and can't be reversed so there's no way to send them their password at that point. Well I mean there is a way, but it requires storing the password as plaintext and I really strongly suggest you don't do that for security reasons.
