I'm receiving the emails from the form perfectly fine. The subject line is correct, the "From" name is correct to what is being typed in by the user, the "email" address is equal to what the user has entered for their email address. BUT, when i try to reply to these messages, the "reply to" email address is populated as "email@myhostingcompanyserver.com" I've attempted to make a few changes but I believe this a setting somewhere that I'm not looking.
Here is an example of a message header. Any ideas?

That's exactly as it should be - technically the mail is from your site, *not* from the person submitting your form.
If you want to be able to reply easily I suggest that you add a reply to link in the email template using mailto:
I do not recommend it but you can try using the Special Fields tab in ChronoForm 2.5.x to put the field names for the submitters email and name in the Reply To Name and Reply To Email boxes. If you do this it is very likely that your emails will be identified as spam and binned by your ISP.
