We would like to be able to send the email confirmation to more than one person. The designated "Store Manager" gets an email but we'd also like anothe head of department to get the same email.

Has anyone done this?

Use your mail administrative tools as provided by your web host to create an alias, using a name such as mailto:orders@yourdomain.com - orders@yourdomain.com .

Point that alias at as many e-mail accounts as you require.

Greg's suggestion is probably the best approach, but you can also try the code change referenced in the following FAQ:

The dilemna with the above code modification is that it requires re-implementation in the future, should that page change and be re-distributed in a update release. Using the mail alias is external to PC and is easy to maintain by non-technical staff.

As soon as I can I'll set up the alias system and test it. Seems like the cleanest answer. Thanks very much!
