Yes, you can change the email address that the order confirmation email is sent from to your own email address. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. In your Shopify admin, go to Settings > Notifications.

  2. Scroll down to the “Order confirmation” section.

  3. In the “Send order confirmation from” field, enter the email address you want to use as the sender of the email.

  4. Click on the “Save” button to save the changes.

This will change the sender email address for the Order Confirmation email that is sent to your customers.

Hi @MSDV ,

Thanks for reaching out.

The first email is the order confirmation email which is sent as soon as the order is placed. The second email is expected and will appear in the inbox when a customer clicks to download the digital file product from the Thank You page, as shown below.

While disabling the ‘Downloads ready’ notification is not currently available, I can see how this feature might be useful to have with our Digital Downloads app. I will be putting forth a feature request to our developers to make the notifications optional.

Have you heard of SendOwl? It’s a similar app to Digital Downloads, which might be worth checking out. SendOwl allows more control over your digital products and offers a free trial for you to try out. If you require support with this app, you can also reach out to the developers directly through the contact information in their app page’s Support section. Let me know if this helps!

What is it that you are selling with Shopify? I would love to know more about your business so that I can provide more specific resources to help you get started.
