I have a 'guest' checkout option on a Magento store, whenever I complete a transaction the "Order Confirmation" email that it sends out is always being returned.
Obviously the email address itself is being saved in the onepage checkout (otherwise the inline validation will display errors).
On the sales_flat_order table I can see the following columns are all NULL after an order has been placed:
customer_email,
customer_firstname,
customer_lastname
The odd thing is on the vagrant box (which should be near enough identical) the 3 columns above all have values in them when I go through the exact same process.
I cannot be sure what is happening, but in a nutshell it would seem that this customer_email for whatever reason isn't be saved to the sales_flat_order table & in turn causing this email to return as undelivered.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of where the logic is for the 'Order Confirmation' email can be found within the Magento system?
I fixed it - there was a core file that had been edited and was setting this customer email value to null...
Order.php from app/code/core/Mage/Sales/Model/ to app/code/local/Mage/Sales/Model/
And
create function getCustomerEmail() and code this function
public function getCustomerEmail() {
if(empty($this->getCustomerEmail())) {
$this->setCustomerEmail($this->getBillingAddress()->getEmail());
} else {
$this->setCustomerEmail($this->getCustomerEmail());
}
}

I've been asked to help do some much needed updates to Microsoft Dynamics NAV 5.0 (yes its old) and they want me to update some of their email templates for sales orders, etc. One of the things they want me to do is update the 'From' field to be a group email box instead of the current user, which I didn't think about be too difficult, but figuring out how NAV creates emails has been less than simple.
This article had some information, but didn't get me all the way there:
http://www.dynamics101.com/2014/02/sending-customized-emails-dynamics-nav/
I've found the Sales Header table which has lots of fields...none of which include "From". I found one field called "Assigned User" which points to the User Setup.
Do you mean the mails that are sent on the event of sales order approval / rejection or that small 'New Mail Message' button in the Customer card? Libraries that are used in these cases are different, and they rely on different automation objects to create e-mail messages.
Anyway, in both cases there is no setup to change the 'From' field - you'll have to customize it a bit.
First of all, you'll need a new field in a setup table to store the e-mail address. Table 'User Setup' is probably the best place, but it depends on the task, of course. Suppose, it is Uset Setup, and you call the new field 'FromAddress'
When you click on the e-mail button in the Customer card, 'Create Mail' wizard is run (Form 5148 'Create Mail'). It calls the function 'NewMessage' in codeunit 397. So, codeunit 397 'Mail', is what you are looking for. To change the 'From' address you need to set the property 'SentOnBehalfOfName' in the OSendMail object.
UserSetup.GET(USERID);
OSendMail.SentOnBehalfOfName(UserSetup.FromAddress);
If the message you want to change is the document approval notification, e-mail message is created in the codeunit 400 'SMTP Mail', but all fields are set up in the codeunit 440 'Approvals Mgt Notification', functions SetTemplate and GetEmailAddress. It is GetEmailAddress that sets the sender address. You need to replace this line of code:
SenderAddress := UserSetup."E-Mail";
with the new one
SenderAddress := UserSetup.FromAddress;
But be careful - this change will affect all templates and all users. If you need to change some templates while leaving other untouched, it is safer to redefine the value of this variable in a function responsible for the particular template. But again, it's all in codeunit 440.
I have a form sent by email that travels through different persons like this.
Person A --> Person B --> Person C
I want the person A to be informed when the form is treated by person C. So Person A needs to be in copy of the email sent by person B.
Because person A isn't always the same one, I think the best way to put him/her in copy is to use the "from" field of the email received by person B and to put it in copy.
But how can I find this address with infopath and how can I place it into my email data connection ?
I had this same question today myself and could not find much in the way of answers.
So... I did some work myself and came up with a few solutions.
First I don't believe there is any way to get/set the "From" address using the InfoPath OM. This means you will have to use one of the following options:
No Code:
You will be limited to providing a field on the form where "Person A" can put their email address and use this in the CC. for subsequent stages. That's kind of the only way and while it an extra burden to the user it does have the benefit of providing flexibility.
Code:
Write your own code to send the mail using Outlook Interop or System.Net.Mail and then you will be setting all of the addresses manually anyway.
If you are using AD or something else then you could always get the email address of the current use using System.DirectoryServices.AccountManagement.
Based on an assumption which I cannot find any documentation to back up. That InfoPath uses the account associated with the default store to send email using EmailSubmitConnection. You should be able to use Outlook Interop to find the address that InfoPath will use.
Here is a code sample:
using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;
public string GetDefaultSenderAddress()
{
// This actually opens outlook in the same way as InfoPath does to send the message.
// which can be slow.
string DefaultAddress = string.Empty;
Outlook.Application OutlookApplication = new Outlook.Application();
string DefaultStoreId = OutlookApplication.Session.DefaultStore.StoreID;
foreach (Outlook.Account Account in OutlookApplication.Session.Accounts)
{
if (Account.DeliveryStore.StoreID == DefaultStoreId)
{
DefaultAddress = Account.SmtpAddress;
}
}
// Note you probably won't want to quit if you are about to send the email.
// However I have noticed that this doesn't seem to close Outlook anyway.
OutlookApplication.Quit();
return DefaultAddress;
}
You may have to provide a few more checks in case of different account types etc. But I believe it will work. (I tested it for my scenario and it does).
Note: Of course this opens an outlook instance which you will have to close as well. And it can be slow. Unless outlook is already open in which case it will be very quick. Anyhow when sending from InfoPath Outlook will have to be opened so if you do this just before sending then there should be no noticeable difference.
I would advise using a combination of the no code/with code options so provide a return address which is automatically complete to save the user time. But can be corrected if the user wishes to have the email returned to a different address of if there is a mistake.
Hope that you find that useful.
I get my checking account balance emailed to me once per day. I want to use Google Apps Script to pull the balance from the email message and plug it into my checking account spreadsheet. I am a novice to coding, but so far I have figured out how to do the following, which gets me a log of HTML code of the correct email message:
function myFunction() {
var thread = GmailApp.getUserLabelByName("CHK BAL").getThreads(0,1)[0]; // get first thread in inbox
var message = thread.getMessages()[0]; // get first message
Logger.log(message.getBody()); // log contents of the body
}
However, because this method returns the HTML code for the email message and not the actual message text, it doesn't contain the balance number that shows up in the email itself.
I tried substituting getPlainBody in place of getBody, but it returns a null value in the Log.
The question posted here is pretty much my same question (Google script that find text in my gmail and adds it to a spreadsheet?), but even with Mogsdad's reply and helpful links I haven't been able to figure out what's going wrong.
Can anyone help redirect me on how to get the email content instead of the null value?
(Once that's solved, I can't say that the link on Mogsdad's other reply is very clear about how to identify the currency and copy it into the spreadsheet, but of course I haven't been able to play around yet since I can't even access the content yet.)
Thanks!
EDIT 1
See Serge's answer below for instructions on how to parse the HTML. I used those functions to grab the text of the most recent Bank Account Balance email from a Gmail label/filter and drop it into a cell in my spreadsheet.
Then I was able to use the following equation in an adjacent cell to strip it down to just the currency number:
LEFT(RIGHT(A5,LEN(A5)-FIND("$",A5)),FIND(CHAR(10),RIGHT(A5,LEN(A5)-FIND("$",A5)))-1)+0
Of course, this works for me because the currency number is always preceded by $ (the first, and in my case, only $ to appear in the text) and always followed by CHAR(10). Anyone trying to apply this formula would need similar consistency before and after the value they are seeking to isolate.
You could try this code snippet originally written by Corey G on SO to get the text from the html content. I use it quite often and it works nicely most of the time :) (Thanks Corey)
function getTextFromHtml(html) {
return getTextFromNode(Xml.parse(html, true).getElement());
}
function getTextFromNode(x) {
switch(x.toString()) {
case 'XmlText': return x.toXmlString();
case 'XmlElement': return x.getNodes().map(getTextFromNode).join('');
default: return '';
}
}
And a test function to try it :
function test(){
var html = GmailApp.getInboxThreads()[0].getMessages()[0].getBody();
throw(getTextFromHtml(html));
}
As to why getPlainBody() is returning null, it is most likely due to a bug in Google Apps Script. The issue has been filed at https://code.google.com/p/google-apps-script-issues/issues/detail?id=3980.
From that thread: "It seems the messages affected contain HTML in their content. A possible workaround involves using getBody() instead of getPlainBody() and parsing through the HTML directly."
I have a Drupal 7 form where after submitting it, some validation happens. It is taking the email address and doing a database look-up to see if that user already exists. If the user exists, I need to alter the form that re-renders on the page that normally displays the errors, removing some fields. Basically on the error page, regardless of any other validation errors they would have normally received (First name required, last name required etc.) they would only get one error message that says "that email address is already in the system" and then I no longer want to display ANY of the other fields at this point except the email address field and a file upload field. So I'm having trouble trying to figure out how to alter the form after the first submission based on some validation.
Thanks
What you want to do is add some data to the $form_state variable in your validation function that can inform your form function as to what fields it should provide.
Untested Example:
function my_form($form, &$form_state){
$form['my_field1'] = array('#markup' => 'my default field');
// look for custom form_state variable
if ($form_state['change_fields']) {
$form['my_field2'] = array('#markup' => 'my new field');
}
}
function my_form_validate($form, &$form_state){
// if not valid for some reason {
form_set_error('my_field1','this did not validate');
$form_state['change_fields'] = true;
// }
}
What I'm doing:
Trying to reduce spammers who wants to register in my site.
And I know that:
Dot is ignored in gmail and you can put dots in everywhere of the localpart of the email address but the first position and last before #.
Problem:
When a user register in the site with ex.ample#gmail.com, everthing is ok, but problem arise when he can register again with ex.am.pl.e#gmail.com etc in the site.
what I did was:
removing any dot in the local part of the email, but I realized that the user can't submit with his email address that he just entered.
What I want is that:
Is there a way to overcome this problem? 'cause with this situation a person can register so many times by changing the dot position in the email address.
I'm sure you found the solution by now, but for the sake of completeness...
Basically you'd need to store the local part as is, without stripping the dots out, and later strip the dots out from both application and registry upon comparison. Like:
$registered_emails[0]="e.xample#gmail.com"; //This is just to show how it was registered first time
$application_email="exam.ple#gmail.com"; //New application email
$discard=0; //flag for discarding application
if (preg_match("/#gmail.com$/i", $application_email)===1) {
$app_em=str_replace(".", "", $application_email);
foreach ($registered_emails as $reg_em)
if ($app_em==str_replace(".", "", $reg_em)) {
// "example#gmailcom"=="example#gmailcom"
$discard=1; // discard application
break;
}
//can't use an "else" clause here to break, as you need to loop through all registries
}
if ($discard==1)
echo "discard application";
else
array_push($registered_emails, $application_email); //register $application_email as is (exam.ple#gmail.com)
Probably it could be worth to filter out all gmail emails from the list before, or even storing all gmail emails aside; certainly not the most elegant solution, but probably the fastest one
