After the order of the customer is dispatched then mail another email informing them about the date it was sent and the shipping method had been deployed.
Along with these details mail the tracking number too. If sometimes there is any delay in processing the customers order, then let them know in advance.

Prior informing about any delay builds up trust and good rapport with the clients.
Be very prompt in reverting back to the customers queries. All target customers would prefer an ecommerce website that is prompt in answering back their inquires in prompt manner. Always address a customer by their name or Sir/Madam in the mail or on telephone. Communicate in such a manner that they feel that they are talking to the real person behind your website.

First time customers should be asked for their consent them sending them email. If you sent indistinct newsletter to the prospective clients than it would create negative impression about your company. In your mail to first time customers let them know about the special offers, discount coupons or any other scheme which they can avail for greater benefits.
