Stamps.com integration - Couple small bugs need addressing

has anyone figured out how to automatically send out email to customer from Zen Cart once shipping lable printed out? I tried to change $customer_notified to '1', didn't work. and tried to add some code into ShippingZZencart.php, but still not working. Any suggestion?

$message =
EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $oID . "\n\n" .
EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL . ' ' . zen_catalog_href_link(FILENAME_CATALOG_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $oID, 'SSL') . "\n\n" .
EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . zen_date_long($check_status->fields['date_purchased']) . "\n\n" .
strip_tags($notify_comments) .
EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATED . sprintf(EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_LABEL, $orders_status_array[$status] ) .
EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_PLEASE_REPLY;

        $html_msg['EMAIL_CUSTOMERS_NAME']    = $check_status->fields['customers_name'];
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER'] = EMAIL_TEXT_ORDER_NUMBER . ' ' . $oID;
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL']  = '<a href="' . zen_catalog_href_link(FILENAME_CATALOG_ACCOUNT_HISTORY_INFO, 'order_id=' . $oID, 'SSL') .'">'.str_replace(':','',EMAIL_TEXT_INVOICE_URL).'</a>';
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED'] = EMAIL_TEXT_DATE_ORDERED . ' ' . zen_date_long($check_status->fields['date_purchased']);
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_COMMENTS'] = $notify_comments;
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATED'] = str_replace('\n','', EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_UPDATED);
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_LABEL'] = str_replace('\n','', sprintf(EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_LABEL, $orders_status_array[$status] ));
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_NEW_STATUS'] = $orders_status_array[$status];
        $html_msg['EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_PLEASE_REPLY'] = str_replace('\n','', EMAIL_TEXT_STATUS_PLEASE_REPLY);

        zen_mail($check_status->fields['customers_name'], $check_status->fields['customers_email_address'], EMAIL_TEXT_SUBJECT . ' #' . $oID, $message, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'order_status');
        $customer_notified = '1';

has anyone figured out how to automatically send out email to customer from Zen Cart once shipping lable printed out?

I find it easier to customize the email be transmitted by Stamps.com from within their application.

interesting, so is it possible to customize it to be the same format as it is sent from zen cart? and customers won't realize it's from stamps.com?

If so, could you share how to do it?

Many thanks!

Never mind, I figured it out, however, it's still not good enough.

This is just a FYI for anyone who may have had a similar problem.

I have everything working, but I had to change order status 3 from DELIVERED to SHIPPED in ShippingZSettings.php and ShippingZZencart.php, as zencart's default order status 3 is SHIPPED, not DELIVERED.
