I have a site that gives a trial subscription to a customer for x period of time, and then removes the "trial" role, and puts them in a "trial expired" role.

Is there a way to automatically have an email sent to these people when they are removed from the "trial" role, and put into the "trial expired" role. 

For marketing purposes, I would like to send an automatic email that thanks them for trying the system, and offers a special deal.  The script that was programmed to remove them from the "trial" role follows the DNN standard.

How are you handling the switching of roles?

There is a 24 hour timer written for the "trial" role.  Once this time has expired, the role is removed.

In your custom code that switches the roles around it would be very easy to implement a method that quickly sent out the user an e-mail.
