Reply options on email messages

In "replying" to an email that was sent to me in D7B7, the options at the bottom say:

Send copy to robg personal email
Send copy to my personal email
Notify robg by e-mail

But I am robg - so all these copies will go to me.  They should have the name of the guy who I am replying to.

More seriously, in the email template we no longer have control over what appears here as we did in D6.  Actually, to be more accurate, that we were supposed to have in D6 if it had worked properly.  Okweb (Ottar) did a wonderful fix / mod for this that let you select exactly what you wanted there.  In my case, I don't like people getting there messages outside the system - I prefer to make them log in to read their messages.   So with Ottar's fix, I just showed one box only "Notify by email" and that was checked by default.

Yeah, I know it probably doesn't fit the strict definition of a "bug" but that is the way I wish it worked.

Ok, I will make this easy.  Here is the link where we got this working properly on D6

http://www.boonex.com/unity/forums/?action=goto&topic_id=Email-alerts

The mod Ottar did to fix this Dolphin defect worked perfectly.  We really shouldn't have to refight the battles we already fought for D6.  Please look at this Boonex - Ottar / okweb has even given you the code.    This is functionality we should have in D7 also.

step 1

edit

/templates/base

mail_box_compose_message.html

around line 84-91

<div class="message_actions">
<div class="messages_options">
<label><input type="checkbox" id="to_mail"/>__send_copy_to__</label>
<br />
<label><input type="checkbox" id="to_my_mail"/>__send_copy_my__</label>
<br />
<label><input type="checkbox" id="notify_mail"/>__notify__</label>
</div>

change to

<div class="message_actions">
<div class="messages_options">
<label><input type="checkbox" id="notify_mail"/>__notify__</label>
</div>

step 2

edit

mail_box_replay_message.html

line 56-63

<div class="message_actions">
<div class="messages_options">
<label><input type="checkbox" id="to_mail"/>__send_copy_to__</label>
<br />
<label><input type="checkbox" id="to_my_mail"/>__send_copy_my__</label>
<br />
<label><input type="checkbox" id="notify_mail"/>__notify__</label>
</div>

change to

<div class="message_actions">
<div class="messages_options">
</div>

That's it

that would be $9.95 + Tax :)
