Actually Profiles.User is not automatically created. Did you want
Profiles.User automatically created, or is this only IF the user
creates a profile?
Yes, there's probably a bunch of ways to accomplish this.
What authentication/sign-up mechanism are you using?

The combination of actions you're requesting are possible but will
require back-end programming. Once programmed a link containing
"action=watchthis&pagename=Site/RecentChanges" could be sent to the
browser.
the action "watchthis" would trigger a custom function that adds the
link to Site/RecentChanges to the person's Profiles.User-Watchlist page.
But the user would still need to request that they be emailed by the
system unless you have a login style that stores user's email
addresses. If you do store email addresses, maybe the function could
check the notify page and make sure the person is listed for
notifications....?
