I am facing below issue in default Magento 1.9.1.1 setup.
I have set Need to Confirm
under System->Configuration->Newsletter->Subscription Option
option to Yes
.
Now when I am trying to subscribe newsletter via newsletter subscription box in footer, Magento is sending newsletter subscription confirmation email.
But when I am trying to subscribe newsletter subscription at the create account page while creating account, magento system is not sending any newsletter subscription confirmation email and directly setting the status as subscribed
.
Best Answer
This is a default functionality of Magento.
You can check here Mage_Customer_AccountController::_getCustomer()
You can enable the email conformation for creation creation.
Or else have to override the
customerAccount controller
to send an email conformation for the newsletter.
