It should be possible to send notification mails to email adresses other than the customer. If you want to inform the shop owner that a new order has been placed, it'll also always send this mail to the customer who placed the order.

we also ran into a situation like this. We used the default Pimcore Mail Events to do this:

Workaround

<?php

class MailAttachmentListener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
    public static function getSubscribedEvents()
    {
        return [ MailEvents::PRE_SEND => 'doSomething' ];
    }

    public function doSomething(MailEvent $event)
    {
        $mail = $event->getMail();
        $order = $mail->getParam('object');

        if (!$order instanceof OrderInterface) {
            return;
        }

        if ($mail->getDocument()->getKey() !== 'order-confirmation') {
            return;
        }

        // do something.

    }
}

I know, it's not the best solution but currently there is no other way.

CoreShop Enhancement

Maybe we should trigger an CoreShopNotificationEvent in all *MailActionProcess with the current notification entity and the Mail Instance just before the $mail->send().

I though about having a checkbox sendToDesignatedRecipient to solve the issue. Having an event would be a different thing.

For BC Reasons better doNotSendToDesignatedRecipient

[solverat]

And how do change the recipient after you checked that thing? Also: There could be 100 cases when a mail needs additional or different data, like attachments, bcc, reply to etc.

[dpfaffenbauer]

yes, as I said that is a different issue. But currently it is not possible to send a order mail to the administrators without having the mail sent to the customer as well.

done
