That's already the case normally in the latest version of HikaShop.
Are you using the latest version ?

Note that it will only be in the order status notification (the email received when the order is confirmed), not in the order creation notification (the email received when the order is created) since the payment has not yet been made.

Ah thats great news, now I just should get it working....
Hikashop 1.58 (of course)

I am using ccIDEAL/ccINVOICE component / plugin (latest version) for payment. It sets the status to confirmed for that order but I only see the 'order created' email. I'll check with David too what might go wrong with his component because I don't get the follow up on ccINVOICES either at the moment.

If I switch the status to CREATED and back to CONFIRMED with 'inform client' ON, I do see exactly what I had in mind. That email comes through too. Meaning Hika is working fine.
But it seems something along ccIDEAL and Hika disturb the process. In DEBUG mode there are no errors.

Just got confirmation from Chill Creations that the current ccIDEAL plugin/component has a bug. The upcoming version 2.7.0 will have a fix for this.

Update:

After many hours of testing the problem was isolated. Mainly caused by the fact that my sites don't use the standard PHP mailer but the SMTP setting.
Chill Creations made a fix I am testing now and all seems well.
I assume it will be in the next updates but will post the versions when I have more info about it.
Code has changed in Component and in Hikashop plugin.

Thanks to the Chill Creations team for fighting this difficult bug.
