email sending

koenvdk
Hi,

I've been testing email sending with form runner.


Here's what I discovered so far:

Setting the properties as described in http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/doc/developer-guide/configuration-properties/configuration-properties-form-runner#TOC-Email-settings
will make sure an email is sent to the recipient set by the property when the workflow-send button - and only that button - is pushed.

In form builder, setting an email field as email-recipient will add that recipient to the "to" list of the email that gets sent when "workflow-send" is pushed.
You can also add a field's contents to the subject line here, but "Confirmation" is always concatenated in front.



I was looking for a way to always send an email to a certain address when a form entry is submitted, so I guess this method is usable. When I want the form submitter to receive a confirmation email as well, however, I would like the fixed email address from the properties to be in "bcc" and the submitter's email address in "to". Is this possible?

Are there any further property settings to control the subject-line and various other things about the emails that I've missed?



Sincerely,



Koen Vanderkimpen

Koen,

Currently only the "to" is set. You can see how this is done here:


It'd be nice to add "cc" and "bcc" as well but currently that's not in.
