Order notification emails are not being sent to store admin or customer

[rwkc]

Virtumart 2.0.0RC3
Joomla! 2.5.6 Stable
PHP Version 5.3.8

All order notification emails are not being sent to the store admin or the customer, yet if you send a message via the contact form it works just fine and if you ask a question about an item you get an error "hacking attempt" but the message still gets delivered.

My main concern is to make virtumart send an email when a order comes in.

Please help.

First update your VM version. 2.0.0 did not work properly with J2.5 - and has a known critical security issue.

I'm having the problem that when you sign a purchase order, no email is sent or the buyer or VirtueMart administration. I have Joomla 2.5.6 and VM 2.0.12f

The same i am facing also no confirmation e-mail to customer or to admin

This is a fix, that worked in my case:

file
libraries\phpmailer\phpmailer.php
line 472

change the line
$params = sprintf("-oi -f %s", $this->Sender);
into
$params="-oi";

the "From" is contained in headers as well, so you won't loose it
