We really try to limit the amount of email that is generated from our forum for a number of good reasons, so we won't implement this. Three of the primary reasons are:

1) Every piece of mail we send out can increase sensitivity of ISP mail filters to automatically block clublexus email which complicates notifications and new member enrollments
2) Part of our agreement with our members that we take very seriously is not to spam them with random emails.
3) We all get enough email in our lives and an automatically generated 'happy birthday' is like the cashier at the grocery store saying 'have a nice day'. Not really meaningful or personal. If you want to make it personal, go look at our forum calendar where we list birthdays and send a message to those you want to greet.

Thanks for the idea anyway!

PS Happy birthday

He's probably had Lexus cars since their inception in 1989.
