Title: Sender email fo bill
Post by: bboom on December 22, 2012, 11:42:25 AM
Is there an option to set the sender of the bill e-mail? Now the bill is sent to the vendor from his own e-mail adres but I want that the bill is send to the vendor from the email of the customer.

Is there anyone who knows how I can change that?

Sorry I forgot to say that I'm using VM 2.0.14 on joomla 2.5.

The thing I want exactly:

I maked a websop for one of my customers. My customer (the webshop onwer) is not using all the functionality, because she want to tell the shipping costs via email after the order. Now the email with the order data comes from the vender email as sender. But if she click at  reply the anser isn't a reply to the customer but a reply to the vendor email.

I hope you can help me.

VM2 uses Joomla core mail functions to accomplish that, not sure if is a proper solution to hack the core to change the "from" mail address for the orders because is not using only for that, may be broke the functionality on other parts. On the other hand inside the order mail, the users mail address that registered with is included and your client can easily grap it from there.
Also those functions is also used by payment plugins, so there is a possibility to have to change all that stuf ...

I suppose the way to handle this is to edit the payment plugin being used in this site to include the customer as reply-to address.
