Hi,

Use a logic hook after/before save event. In the hook implement the php mail function. Get the senders email id from the DB and send mail to them.


Cheers,

Hi, i too need the logic to send an email to the email address mentioned while creating a Lead.
The content of the email should be external, not the custom code.

How can i achieve it, and which file i have to change, to write the mail function?
Whenever a new Lead is created, the mail should be sent to the specified email address.
