Sending two or more different emails after form submission

How can I make so that 2 different emails are sent after a user submits a form?

Both will use variables from the input. One is the order confirmation email to the user and the other is the actual order. I would like these to have different formating.

Espen,

have you managed to get this working?
I'm currently in the exact same situation and would like to know if you had any success...

cheers,

Hello
Maybe this help

1. add two email attribute to "form class" (id of the attribute "email_one", "email_two")
2. override the template "/content/collectedinfomail/form.tpl" and then add this code

send to first email
{set-block scope=root variable=email_receiver}{$object.data_map.email_one.content}{/set-block}

send to second email
{append-block scope=root variable=email_cc_receivers}{$object.data_map.email_two.content}{/append-block}

<b>Or without class change</b>
1. override the template "/content/collectedinfomail/form.tpl" and then add this code

{set-block scope=root variable=email_receiver}Enter_you_first_email_address@ez.no{/set-block}

send to second email
{append-block scope=root variable=email_cc_receivers}Enter_you_second_email_address@ez.no{/append-block}

The above code doesn't do what Espen was after. I believe you are still sending the exact same email to two different people (using to and CC). But Espen is after a template for each email. So both emails have different contents in it. I'm after the same functionality.

Does anyone know how to do this, apart from writing your own extension.

Cheers
