Emails copy

[ollea]

Hello,

Perhaps it is possible but I did not find how.

I would like to know if it is possible to send a BCC copy of emails to a predefined e-mail address.

For example we would like to send a BCC copy to our accountant when a new participant is subscribed to an event.

Could you help me ?

Thank you for the support,

Yes.What you need to to is create a CiviCRM profile and attach in to your event registration page. In the  profile Advanced settings there is a field called "Notify when profile form is submitted?". You can add one or more addresses to this field.
Hope this helps.

Thank you but we would like to send a copy when adding a subscription from the backend :

/civicrm/participant/add?reset=1&action=add&context=standalone

Is there a way to do it ?

You could potentially do this via the mail alter hook

http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC42/Hook+Reference#HookReference-hook_civicrm_alterMailParams

There is not an option in the UI for this

Thank you, it works but there is a little problem.

I have created a new module and added this function inside it :

Code: [Select]

function callhooks_civicrm_alterMailParams(&$params)
{
$params['bcc'] = 'my@email.com';
}

When an e-mail is sent it is now blind copied to the specified e-mail but this address is also added to the recipients (To:), like : user@user.com, my@email.com

Do you have an idea why and how not to add the address to the recipients ?

Additionally could you tell me how to identify in my hook function the e-mail that is sent when adding somebody to an event to the other e-mails ?

Thank you,

1. the bcc bug is a bug in the underlying PEAR library and is not likely to be fixed till we switch to using a different mail library

2. You should print the $params array and see the contents. I suspect there are a couple of variables in there which indicate what email message template is being sent

Thank you, I identify it using these two variables :

Code: [Select]

if ( $params['groupName'] === 'msg_tpl_workflow_event' && $params['valueName'] === 'event_offline_receipt' )
As I understand, there is no way to send blind e-mail in CiviCRM yet, right ?
