My thoughts on the matter is that getting the UI to allow this is no small feat, even if it was on the priority list.

The API & Webhooks are enough to allow the automation of messages like this. I don’t think it would be too hard to setup a webhook tell Zapier (or your app, etc) there’s a new person, and have Zapier automatically create a PM from you to the new user after X days.

You’ll be able to tailor it to your liking far sooner than waiting for someone to build in a UI for arbitrary timed messages.
