Magento

Hi

I am currently testing the checkout process thru my magento store and paypal sandbox with dummy orders.

After a guest or logged in customer makes a purchase from the store, it seems magento does not send an email (order confirmation) to the purchaser… only when i log into the admin and “invoice” or “ship” the order does magento sent an email advising the customer of the same… i know once the store is live, paypal will confirm the purchase with an email from their side…

Also i know there is a function on the order page to “notify” the customer of the order status eg: Paypal Pending but again seems to be a manual “switch” to send an email…

Is the any option in the admin to have the store send an “auto-email” the the customer after checkout is complete…

Thx

Magento ver. 1.3.2.4
Skin ver F002

Hi,

After reading a post about another issue, i discovered that because i had my site password protected while i setup and tested magento. it stopped paypal IPN from working and therefore did not send the order confirmation emails. 

I have similar issue, but purchases made by either guest or registered / paypal or check payment - nobody except the site admin get the order confirmation email. Using ver. 1.3.2.4.
Please help!
