    This feels like a completely newbie question, but here goes.

    When my client receives an email from the contact form on their website, they want to simply use the reply to function in their email client to respond to the submitter.

    &emailTo=`[email protected]`
    &emailReplyTo=`email`

    When they receive the email from the form, it shows the submitter's email address in the From: field and it shows their email address in the To: field, as I would expect.

    However, when my client tries to reply to this message, the To: field in their response message has their own email address rather than the submitter's email address shown in the reply to field. So they have to manually enter the submitter's name to reply to them.

    Is this how this should work? What am I missing.

      I always use &emailReplyTo=`[[+email]]`
