auto_awesome What this module does

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 15.0

Automatically adds the sender's own address to the hidden copy (Bcc) of every email Odoo sends, so the sender receives a copy of each outgoing message.

This module changes how Odoo sends outgoing emails. Whenever Odoo sends a message through its mail server, the module adds the sender's own email address to the hidden copy field (Bcc) of that message. As a result, the person who sent the email also receives a copy in their own mailbox.

  • The copy is added automatically; users do not need to tick any option or change any setting.
  • If the message already has hidden recipients, the sender's address is added alongside them, not instead of them.
  • The behaviour can be switched off for a specific email by the system using a technical flag, but there is no menu or screen for users to control it.

The change applies to all outgoing mail handled by Odoo's mail server configuration (ir.mail_server), so it affects every area that sends email, such as sales, invoices, projects and discussions. It does not add menus, buttons, reports or new fields visible in the interface.

This is useful to confirm that an email really left Odoo, to keep the full conversation when the recipient replies, and to check that the outgoing mail server is working.
