Magento 1: Disable CC on Sales Emails if Order ID prefix = AMZ or EBAY

Question

We sell on Amazon, eBay and via the website. I have setup the CC in the System > Configuration > Sales > Sales Emails to copy all of the emails there to the store owner (Order, Order Comments, Invoice, Invoice Comments, Shipment, Shipment Comments, Credit Memo, Credit Memo Comments).

Store owner wants to receive emails generated from the website only. Other orders from marketplaces, currently Amazon and eBay, these email should not be sent to him via the CC field. They have Order ID prefixes of AMZ and EBAY in front of them while the website orders have no prefix.

How can this be accomplished?

Answer 1

You need to override the Mage_Core_Model_Email_Template class via the

Magento_root/app/code/local/Mage

directory or rewrite it in your custom extension.
And you need add some code into the send function, please replace the following code:

foreach ($emails as $key => $email) {
    $mail->addTo($email, '=?utf-8?B?' . base64_encode($names[$key]) . '?=');
}

by the following code:

$sendCC = true;
if (isset($variables['order'])) {
    $order = $variables['order'];
    $orderIncrementId = $order->getIncrementId();
    if (0 === strpos($orderIncrementId, 'AMZ')
        || 0 === strpos($orderIncrementId, 'EBAY')
    ) {
        $sendCC = false;
    }
}
$storeOwnerEmails = array('email1@domain.com', 'email2@domain.com'); // here you need set store owner emails
foreach ($emails as $key => $email) {
    if (!$sendCC && in_array($email, $storeOwnerEmails)) {
        continue;
    }
    $mail->addTo($email, '=?utf-8?B?' . base64_encode($names[$key]) . '?=');
}
