For our website, it IS a welcome message, because they have partial
access to the site after they have registered and before they have
confirmed.
Well, that's probably the real issue. Even if you split the message
into two messages then you'll get complaints about overfilling the
mailbox. We tried that for a while in another context.
In some ways it's more tolerable because even though you get a complaint
the right thing has happened and most people seemed to move on, i.e.,
they complain and they're done.
You still might try it, though. Different user communities have
different ideas about what is reasonable.
