Yes, I know a subject is needed. Please see the image of how my form is configured (it does have a subject).
Thanks,

Hi Allan,
That all looks good (though it's a bit small for my eyes). If the subject is there but isn't showing up on the e-mail in debug then I guess something is overwriting it. Do you have anything on the Special Fields tab? An entry there would overwite the default I think.
I notice that the From field in debug is showing '[]' too instead of the value on your tab. Looks like the From Name and address are being lost too - that will also prevent the email being sent.

Here is the Special Fields tab. Everything looks right yet the form still doesn't work. I am able to successful send emails from other pages on my site.

Hi Allan,
Aha, that explains it, these entries have to be valid 'form field names' - they are used to take input from the form and use it in the e-mail. If you clear all of these then I think all will be well.

The form worked after I cleared the above fields. What is the difference between Special Fields and General Fields when they have the same name? Any ideas what went wrong?
Hi Allan,
Yes, the General tab fields take content like [email]'user@example.com[/email]' (the values are always the same) and the Special Fields tab fields take field 'names' from your Form like 'email' and put the value of that field into the e-mail (the values change with the form input).
Think that you use the Special Fields to gather data from the person completing the form. That way you can use their name and e-mail address to send them a copy of the form e-mail.
