eForm Question (From / From Name)

MODX Evo 1.0.4.

By default we've always allowed eForm to handle all the sending. When a client gets the form the from field in their mail client will say ClientName <[email protected]>

ClientName = Site Name from what I can tell
<default@domain> = the email set in the [(email_sender)] under Tools > Config

Now the &from= parameter you can set to any email, but how can I set it to the email address of the person who just filled out the form? Much like the &replyTo= parameter, I just put `email` (no go)

The &fromName= should also pull the person's name that filled out the form?

Help is appreciated - thank you in advance!

&replyto=`email` 
&tpl=`contact-form` 
&report=`contact-report` 
&gotoid=`6` 
&from=`[+email+]` 
&fromname=`[+firstName+]`
