![]() Some of my competitors automagically send out polite inquiry emails within an hour or so if you start a cart in their shop and then abandon it. I would love to have this too, especially since I'm relatively new to x-cart and don't have a good idea of why carts get abandoned on my site (other than the Canadian shipping issue). Does anyone offer this kind of mod?

![]() This is highly "illegal" in today's e-mail world. Technically, you are only allowed to send an e-mail to someone if:
a. They bought something form your site and you are contacting them about their order. b. They opted in to a mailing list c. They contacted you requesting information If a customer started a cart, they may have a million reasons to abandon it, but sending them any kind of e-mail about it is not a good idea.
