Can anyone help with this.
I have a Chronoform on a site, the form collects data from users.
What I would like is for the response mail to come to ME, FROM the person filling in the form.
Is this possible?
Currently on the General Tab I have the Email addresse(s) set to me, the From email is me, and the Reply to is me.
So what happens is that I get a mail from me to me saying someone has filled in a form.
I notice that there is a Tab called Special fields that has a From email field, can I put the variable name from the form in her, so that the email from the person filling in the form has their mail address filled in, so I then get a mail saying [email]joe-smith@hotmail.co.uk[/email] has filled in a form? (Hope this makes sense)
If so what is the syntax for doing it?
The version of Chronoforms is.... I have no idea, nor do I know where to look, this is all new to me, still. It is about 12-18months old, so will not be 3.0
It is also going to be rewritten so this is just a temp fix.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Mcp,
in the special fields tab, set the "from email field" to the field name in your form HTML code which holds the user's email address!

Hi mcp,
Adding to Max's reply - put the field name in without any quotes or brackets.

PS My usual caveat - I strongly recommend that you do *not* do this, many ISPs check that domain in the From email matches the sending site and will drop or mark as spam any emails where they do not match.
