Duplicated order confirmation mail to vendor and buyer

[worknmn]

so you mean comment out the following line?

$orderModel->notifyCustomer($this->virtuemart_order_id, $orderDetails);

Yes.

so now no pending order mails are sent - we want customers to receive an order confirmation - no matter if its paid or not?!?! what do we do now?

[worknmn]

You should check configuration in "Checkout".
"Default Order Status to send email to shopper" and "Default Order Status to send email to vendor " should have "Panding"

Thanks worknmn - your fix works for me too on VM2.6.18. I had same problem with unwanted extra pending order being sent to both shopper and admin.
