    Default Email Settings

    In the Email Options there are some settings that I don't know what they are or how they should be set. Can anyone answer a few questions for me? Sorry if they seem really basic but I am technologically handicapped. Thanks in advance.

    1) Use MIME HTML When Sending Emails. True or False? (Currently set to false)
    2) Email Archiving Active. True or False? (Currently set to false)
    3) E-Mail Friendly-Errors. True or False? (Currently set to false)
    4) Email Admin Format? TEXT or HTML? (Currently set to TEXT)
    5) Send Copy of Create Account Emails To - Status. On or Off? (Currently Off)
    6) Send Copy of Tell a Friend Emails To - Status. On or Off? (Currently On)
    7) Send Copy of Customer GV Send Emails To - Status. On or Off? (Currently Off)
    8) Send Copy of Admin GV Mail Emails To - Status. On or Off? (Currently Off)
    9) Send Copy of Admin Orders Status Emails To - Status. On or Off? (Currently Off)
    10) Audience-Select Count Display. True or False? (Currently set to true)

    Most should be self-explanatory. Note that if you click on the option there is often an explanation provided.

    1. If False, your store will only send text emails, not HTML emails. That's my preference, but many disagree.

    2 and 3. Leave at False unless you're having email problems.

    3. Do you want to receive the admin emails in text or HTML format?

    5 - 9. Do you want copies of the listed emails sent to some email address?

    10. Never noticed that one, but I usually stick with the Zencart defaults unless I have reason not to.

    For most admin settings like that, if you click on it a dialog will appear on the right-hand side of the screen with an explanation, as well as an opportunity to edit.
