If you are a developer, please contact me offlist with a price for the following functionality. Ivo Truxa's generous reply to an earlier post is included to provide one possible approach - thank you Ivo!
Goal: We want to put a special gift or paper coupon in the boxes of
those customers who are purchasing for the FIRST time.
I know I can send 'new account creators' a Welcome email with VC's 'New
Customer Account Email Confirmation.'. I know about Weilands Follow-On
module too.
Our warehouse pickers need to see on their invoice/pick slip that this
is a FIRST TIME customer.
We have Ivo's UltraBatch and MMHTML and MMHTMLc. We also JUST bought
ShipWorks.
Open UI and Compiled 4.23 store.

Ivo's word below:
Depending what exactly you want to achieve, you can contact a Miva coder to
give you the corresponding Miva Script code that you can put in the header
or footer of the notification.
The code would be different if you just want to flag a customer who does not
yet have an account and have just created one, or at customers of whom there
is no order in the kept order history. That would assume you do not delete
orders, but rather keep them in Merchant. Again, the code would be different
if you want to check for email addresses (though the same person may use a
different address at a new order), customer's name (there may be more people
of the same name), the address (the person can move, or had multiple
addresses), or a combination of multiple criteria. Depending on your exact
wish, the code can be done relatively easily with the MvFILTER command. For
example in this way:
<MvASSIGN NAME="g.custEmail" VALUE="{tolower(trim(Orders.d.bill_email))}">
<MvASSIGN NAME="g.curRecno" VALUE="{Orders.d.recno}">
<MvFILTER NAME="Orders" FILTER="{tolower(trim((Orders.d.bill_email)) EQ
g.custMail AND Orders.d.recno NE g.curRecno}">
<MvIF EXPR="{Orders.d.EOF}">
<h3 style="color:red">NEW CUSTOMER!</h3>
</MvIF>
<MvGO NAME="Orders" ROW="{g.curRecno}">
There are, of course also many other possible aproches, but if you contact
an experienced Miva coder, he can implement it exactly to your wishes.
