I need for order emails to automatically send to the store owner and the customer.

Alert Mail:
Send a email to the store owner when a new order is created.

This is set to "Yes"

SMTP settings are correct. In fact order updates do send to customers successfully. However, I needed to manually edit the code to update the settings.

How can I get email to automatically send when an order is placed?

So the order email does not use SMTP. Is that correct?

Since I had to manually configure the SMTP settings used for the Order Updates (the control panel did not change it), I assume that I will need to do so for this as well.

Where will I find the settings needed to email the Order confirmation?

Is this poster's link the file you are referring to?

I tried replacing the code of mail.php with the code here: http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php ... 740#p31518

I was then unable to log into the admin control panel

When you say Order Updates do you mean your not clicking the notvfy customer when you manually updated and order status?

If we check the Notify Customer and make an update to the status, an email is sent.

Actually no emails are being sent successfully now

The initial issue was that when an order is complete, no email was being sent to the store ower or the customer.
