Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.Hi, thanks for the module.
I have a few modules where the user gets emailed site notifications to an external email like hotmail or yahoo. What I would like is for these emails to also be sent to the users inbox on my drupal site.
I.e when a user first signs up they get sent an email, (sent to the email adress they registered to the site with) welcoming them to the site etc. What i want is for another email exactly the same sent to their private msg inbox. And do the same for every email sent, that would usually get sent to the email they signed up with.
Is it possible to add this to privatemsg, how would i do this?
Thanks for any help

litwol commentedYes it is possible to do, however there are difficulties with this idea.
Consider this: Right now when user receives a privatemsg [, depending on the configuration], we send that user an email to their mail box (yahoo, gmail, etc).
This behavior causes a loop that email will trigger a privatemsg which will trigger an email which will trigger privatemsg, etc etc ....
Before we even consider this feature, we must ensure that this loop never happens.

naheemsays commentedCan this be done somehow by the messaging module? (it's whole point seems to be to do "redirections", maybe it can do duplication too?)
If so, I could also be interested in the answer, but not enough to investigate.

berdirSetting the correct category, this is a new feature, not a support request.

ptmkenny commentedYou can do this now with the Rules integration.
