basically what you ask is already the scaffolding/default app called
welcome the only thing in you need do is:

0) used admin to start a new app
1) edit models/db.py and configure uncomment and email settings
2) at the bottom of models/db.py add

auth.settings.register_onaccept=lambda form: mail.send(to='y...@...',
message='%(first_name)s %(last_name)s registered' % form.vars)

3) done. If you typed more than one line of code, something is wrong.
