Email setting for receiving the order ?

How does this work ?

Do I need to send a copy of the customers confirmation order to myself so that I know I have a order ?

Seems like there should be a notification to myself that an order is placed but if I turn off send a copy of the confirmation order I get nothing.

In other words, does my zen cart just send one email out when a customer places an order to the customer

or

one email to the customer and one to me ?

If there is another email sent to me at the time of order....where do I set that address ?

Thanks,

You need to turn this back on if you want Zencart to send you an email as well as the customer.

Did you even look????

Send Copy of Order Confirmation Emails To

I am the owner of the store yet I get a "copy" of the order confirmaton to the customer which was where my stubborn mind block was not letting me proceed.

So to proceed further, can I modify the order confirmation email "copy" to my company or will that also change the order confirmation to the customer ?

Again, just seems like two emails need to be sent....one to the customer stating the confirmation....and one the the store owner..."Hey, You Have A Order !!!"

When you receive a copy you know that you have an order

Ok,

Lets assume I have someone receiving emails (hundreds) and starts reading thru them and they see:

Order Confirmation from (Our Company)

Thanks for shopping with us today!
The following are the details of your order.

Order Number: 33
Date Ordered: Saturday 13 November, 2010
Detailed Invoice:

Seems like they could skip right thru it and not know that your company needs to act on this copy of a order confirmation.

Two emails need to be sent. (1) to the customer...(1) to my company.....not a copy of the confirmation cause it IS confusing.

Should be no need for hundreds....
Create a special email address for orders and insert it in the email options

Send Copy of Order Confirmation Emails To > orders@yourdomain

One would have to custom code anything else
