FAQs

There is a Joomla! bug that adds the Admin Email address to any Reply To Email address that is set in ChronoForms.

There's a partial fix for this bug in Joomla! 2.5 . . . but it hasn't been carried through to the sendmail function so ChronoForms still can't access it (at least not without building it's own sendmail function).

Here is a hack fix for this. Edit the libraries/joomla/mail/mail.php file in Joomla! 2.5 or later. Look for this function around line 411 and make the two changes shown:

public function sendMail($from, $fromName, $recipient, $subject, 
$body, $mode = 0, $cc = null, $bcc = null, $attachment = null, $replyTo =
 null,
      $replyToName = null)
   {
      // $this->setSender(array($from, $fromName)); // <-- comment out this line
      $this->setSubject($subject);
      $this->setBody($body);

      // Are we sending the email as HTML?
      if ($mode)
      {
         $this->IsHTML(true);
      }

      $this->addRecipient($recipient);
      $this->addCC($cc);
      $this->addBCC($bcc);
      $this->addAttachment($attachment);

      // Take care of reply email addresses
      if (is_array($replyTo))
      {
         $numReplyTo = count($replyTo);

         for ($i = 0; $i < $numReplyTo; $i++)
         {
            $this->addReplyTo(array($replyTo[$i], $replyToName[$i]));
         }
      }
      elseif (isset($replyTo))
      {
         $this->addReplyTo(array($replyTo, $replyToName));
      }
// add these lines from here
      if ( count($this->ReplyTo) > 0 ) {
         $this->setSender(array($from, $fromName, false));
      } else {
         $this->setSender(array($from, $fromName));
      }
// to here
      return $this->Send();
   }
