It's all well and good, but I have a production system that sometimes refuses to send order confirmation emails out, even though the format of them are identical and the recipient gets other emails. Have spent a disproportionate amount of time trying to locate them but its hard when its a bit random. I'm not blaming the email component - I just wish there was a better way of tracking down those sort of errors.
