Easiest way is to skip the Javascript, and put in a meta header refresh
between the head tags in welcome.html:

 <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;url=<!--IMAIL.ContinueLink-->">


If you really must use JS, this should work:

<script><!--
 function myLoad(){
   var
temp=setTimeout('self.location.href="<!--IMAIL.ContinueLink-->"',5000);
 }
//-->
</script>
<body onLoad="myLoad();">

Finally, if you just want to skip the welcome.html file (which as an
interesting sidenote actually displays the "news" contents, not the
"welcome" contents, which are displayed on the login page - those darn
Ipswitch engineers), delete or rename your mailnews.txt file.
