A client of mine has asked me to see if I can change the sent from email address from the owner of the shop to the email address of the customer. It seems they "reply" to the order info email and it puts their own email address in the to: field instead of the customer. They tend to forget to change the address before sending it. Is there a way to change the code so the sender on the order emails the shop owner gets has their customers email address?

(I searched the forums for quite a while and couldn't find an answer. if this has been asked and answered, please give me the link to the forum. Thanks.)

Try changing the one sent to the shop owner in checkout_process.php to be from the sustomer ans leave the one to the customer as is.
