email order from

[100asa]

Is it possible to have account creations and order confirmations email sent from the email address of the customer, instead the default email address of zencart owner? Thank you

What business problem are you trying to solve with this ?

No business problem. Only relate customer with order into vtiger crm

I'm trying to change in /includes/classes/order.php at the end of file:
$email_order . $extra_info['TEXT'], STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'checkout_extra', $this->attachArray);
EMAIL_FROM with $this->customer['email_address']
with no success. Where I'm wrong?

***SOLVED***
admin-->configuration-->email option-->email address from BLANK, and mail send from know domains NO
then, into root-->includes-->classes-->order.php, on the last line of file,

$email_order . $extra_info['TEXT'], $this->customer['lastname'], $this->customer['email_address'], $html_msg, 'checkout_extra', $this->attachArray); 

so you will have the email extra order from the lastname and email of customer!
Thank you

After many more test, I've add again the default email address of my compay as sender default and know domain to NO
So all the email will send by default compay address, except for order, that have sender email of customer.
Now I would have the create account email with customers email, but in function_email.php I don't found the code to edit.
Somebody help me to find it?

The "business problem" is apparently that you want to do something else with the emails, namely send data into your CRM.

You have a few options:

a) Since Zen Cart intentionally sends the email "from" the store, but with a "ReplyTo" of the actual customer's email address (this IS the CORRECT way to send store emails, else you'll get your email server banned for spoofing and impersonating people other than who you actually are), you could modify your CRM system to read the "ReplyTo" header instead of the "To" header.

b) Or you could simply write an observer class (or modify one of the many I've posted on the forum already for this sort of thing) to send an extra copy of the emails using different rules, specifically to an inbox used by your CRM system. That way your CRM system would get a different specific email intended for its own use, completely separate from the Admin Office Use Only email that ZC normally sends.
