I think that this might work, but I’m not entirely sure: GitHub - pfaffman/discourse-mailchimp-webhook

Oh, thanks a lot for the help!

You’ll likely need to use something like those or get a custom plugin.

I think the first automated message comes when a user spends about 15mins browsing a forum and is then promoted to trust level 1. I wrote up a guide how to use these system message to welcome new user:
