I have designed a form page using the Form Wizard in Front Page 2003.
Everything is working correctly, though when I receive the emails from the
form the from line says Webmaster. Is there any way to format the form so
that the email address of the sender is displayed here?
 
Yes. Here's how:

1. Make sure the form has a text box where the visitor can type his or her
e-mail address. If you don't know the form field name, double-click the text
box and note its Name property.
2. Right-click the form, choose Form Properties, click the Options button.
3. Select the E-Mail results tab.
4. Under Reply-To line, select the check box and then type the name of the
text box from step 1.
5. Click OK and OK, then save and test.

PS
The From line will still say "Webmaster@yourdomain
(the server from which the form was sent)
But using Jims instructions you will be able to click Reply To to see & use the senders Email address
