I have a forms on a number of websites you can see examlpes at
www.itaustralia.info and www.styleandgrace.com.au
I have set the form properties/saving results/email results to the email
address of the owner of the website.
When the owner receives the email from the form all is OK, except that when
they click on the reply to in oulook the email address field is populated
with my email address. Why is this??
How can I have the form field for the email populate the reply to field??
I've check all the code on the styleandgrace.com.au website and my email
address in nowhere in the code, so I dont know how it picks it up.
Thanks in advance
Regards Doug
 
That's how the FP form handler works. The remote web host puts the email
address in. The email is actually from the system, not the user who filled
out the form.
 
Right click the form and select Form Properties.
Click Options and then click the "Email Results" tab.

Down by "Reply to line:" check "Form field name:"
and then enter the name of the form field used by the sender to enter their
email
In http://www.styleandgrace.com.au/Contact.htm it is the "Email" field.

Then the senders address will appear in the Reply to line in OE.

I have a related problem:
Yes, the "reply-to" does work, when clicking on "Reply" in Outlook ...

BUT when using a Rule to "Reply-To", it uses the "From" field, not the
"Reply-To" field.

Why is this?!?!?
