Email Archive Manager

I had this problem too, but fixed it with a simple code change in the email template.. if you look at email_template_welcome.html within the style tag theirs no comment tag to hide the style code from getting displayed!

code in red add to the top

<style type="text/css">
<!--

add to the closing tag..

-->
</style>

And if I used the re-send function, the customer would receive a raw HTML(or perhaps PHP too) code message starting like

not sure on this one, If it didn't work the first time, I normally go with a different email program for the second email.

Thank you for your reply.

Sorry, I should have be more specific about the problem.

So far, this HTML preview "malfunction" appears in the "[New Order] Order confirmation", "Create Account, Welcome..." and those emails from the "Contact us" form. I just checked other emails, the "Discount coupon" and "Gift Certificates" and "Order Status update" emails are all right.

I am testing the resend function now, will let you guys know later...

Well, those emails are fine...

So, are there any experts going to work on this? From swguy's post, it seems it's going to be a big modification.

Has anyone fixed the HTML resend problem on the Order Confirmation or Welcome message resend? This kinda makes the whole module useless if I can't resend "some" of the messages reliably...

Resending HTML mail is not going to work; the HTML is modified prior to storage in the database to prevent attacks. I suggested that we be able to force TEXT as a mode during resend since the text could be resent.

Note that if you add yourself (or an email under your control) to the CC list for all outbound emails, you could resend from your own email client.

I wonder why the html is modified? Because all the html is generated by zencart internally (with the email templates), so what 'attack' is being prevented.
The only customer input to the emails (contact us and order comments) are heavily sanitised (and de-html'd) before getting included and the rest of the email is safely generated by ZenCart.

I did once (quite a few years ago now) ammend this contribution to store the emails with the html in the database, and so enable resending of the html emails. It worked well. Basically you have to remove the (buggy) code that strips the html and create a blank email template for resending the email.

This is really a great module which works fine on my site and helps so much.

Buy I'd like to have one more feature included in the possible next version(seems little hope, since this mod got no posts for a long time)

The "trim email" functions gives little freedom to us, only 3 options: 1month, 6months and 12month.

But the "search email archive" function gives us enough option and freedom, so I'm think if we can have a "delete button" on the search result page, that would be great, see picture:

Thanks for this great mod!

Anyway to edit emails before re-sending it ?
