Is there any way to see SENT email that was sent from inside my admin? Sent mail does not show in my hosting email.

Thank you.

Yes, you need to have email archiving turned on. (This will log the emails sent into the database.) (Set in admin panel, Configuration, E-mail Options, E-mail Archiving Active? = true)

And then you can easily work with/review those emails if you then install email archiv manager from the plug-ins area. http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=101

Thanks! Don't understand why they don't have these already installed though. Guess I can't complain. They do a great job here.

Well, 1) it takes database storage space, (not everyone has unlimited), 2) not everyone needs to keep a list of all of their emails in ZC, because it is already somewhere else (we have ours set so that the emails sent out go to a designated email address for the applicable "function". (E-mail options type things). But, we also have the archive turned on as a sort of cross reference/ability to resend. Afterall if there is an email send problem, we wouldn't know what emails to try to resend or to whom if we didn't know which went out...

The email archive table:
email_archive

can become rather huge if not cleaned up from time to time so many do not choose to use this for storing emails ...

Be aware of this for part of the maintenance for the site, if you decide to enable it ...

Be nice if there was a setting for how old. Maybe dump everything over a few weeks. Just sayin. Trying not to sound complaining it's just it seems like so many options require an install and I'm only so so at this stuff. Thanks for your 2 cents too.
