Notication Email

[LSK6453]

Prior to upgrading to the new version, when an email was automatically sent from the system to my users, all emails were hidden.  In the new version, all emails are in the to field and are available for all to see.  Is there a way to get these hidden again please? My clients are requesting.
Please see attached.
Thank you

Hi,
what do you mean with 'new version' and what was the prior version?

We have not changed anything here with the e-mails in the latest versions update (3.2.41).

Hi Arno, when I was on 2.8 and prior, the emails never showed up in the to field of the email, they were always hidden.  Since I have upgraded to the 3.2.x version, the emails show and the clients that use my site have asked if I can stop it.  Is there a setting that I am missing that will put the emails in the BCC field?

[Arno]

Okay i will check this.

Hi
If the list email addresses were added as BCC items then one needs another email address for the 'To' field.  This is because some email servers object if there is no entry in the 'To' field. 
One could use the current users email address, or maybe the general site email address, or of course make one up.

What would you think?

@ Colin:
i will use the first recipient for the 'To' field and all others for the 'BCC' field.
Not perfect but better as currently.

@ LSK6453:
Please try the (unzipped) file below and copy it to this folder: Joomla_ROOT/components/com_jdownloads/helpers/

Thanks guys.  I have copied the file to the server and will do a test and let you know what happens

[LSK6453]

I can confirm that this has worked.  Thanks Arno!  Will i have to copy this file over after each upgrade of jdownloads or will this be built into future builds?

Hi
The modified file should be part of the next update.  We also need to modify the instructions in the Config - emails tab and give to the translators.

In English this presently reads as

"E-mail address to which download information is sent. For multiple email addresses insert a semi-colon ; between each adress. "

the revised text will probably be something like

"E-mail address to which download information is sent. For multiple email addresses insert a semi-colon ; between each address.
With multiple addresses the first address in the list is used as the To address and the others are set is Bcc."

Sounds great, thanks Colin

Fixed in 3.2.42.
