How can I disable user welcome and email validation mail?

I'm using LDAP authentication to validate usernames/passwords, and creating a user account for when validation is successful.

Users are still being sent welcome emails though, which ask them to validate their email address (this will never be necessary, since I'm getting their email from an AD server).

Is there a way to disable these emails?

I'm creating new users using:

new_user = User(username=username, email=email)
new_user.email_isvalid = True
new_user.set_unusable_password()
new_user.save()
forum.actions.UserJoinsAction(user=new_user, ip=request.META['REMOTE_ADDR']).save()

Is there some better way?
