Orders processing

Is it somehow possible to send email to customer when status of his/her order is being changed? I think it would be nice sending email that the order is started to be processed, including some information (payment) and later sending email it has been processed and the goods are on the way.
I've been looking into sources trying to implement it myself, but haven't understood much. B-)

ppp2 - well, you have to redefine function saveOrderStatus(..) in core/orders-admin.php, instructing the script that after dbSaveOrderStatus( $iOrder, $iStatus ); to retrieve data from saved order (function throwOrder() ), and after that to send email to customer.

If you purchase this plugin (it is not expensive):

http://opensolution.org/sklep/?p=productsMore&iProduct=49

then open templates/admin/sendOrderStatusToClient.tpl, you can add order info like in the following example that I have used:

<!-- BEGIN TITLE -->Status of your order ID 10$aData[iOrder] was changed<!-- END TITLE -->

<!-- BEGIN CONTENT -->
Dear $aData[sFirstName],

The status of your order ID 10$aData[iOrder] was changed to "$sSelectedStatus"

Many thanks for your order!
