Some emails go out by themselves when an order moves: confirmed, printing, ready, shipped and the rest. With Ask me first, they wait for you instead.

Turn it on or off

Go to Settings › Customer emails › Before an email goes to a customer. Pick Ask me first or Send on their own. New shops start on Ask me first.

Only some? Open Pick for each email and set each one to Ask me or Just send.

Before an email goes to a customer: Ask me first or Send on their own, and Pick for each email.

Send what's waiting

Home shows an Emails to check tile and the list under Emails waiting for you. Each row has Look first and Send. Send all sends the lot.

Emails waiting for you on Home: a row per email with Look first and Send, and Send all.

Look first shows the real email, who gets it and the subject. Click Send to Owen, or Don't send to drop it. Edit words takes you to your wording.

Happy with one? Tick the box at the bottom, like Send "Shipped" without asking from now on, and that email stops asking.

The Check this email window: to, subject, the email itself, Don't send and Send to Owen.
Estimates and invoices you send yourself always go right away. Pressing the button is the OK.
