Setting mail resuts for REPLY to message

Post by cmsintent »

Hi Pablo...

I have a form that will not deliver to a gmail address unless I add a "matching" user@samedomain.com address to the GENERAL > EMAIL ADDRESS > MORE > FROM EMAIL field

By doing this the "from" email is the same domain as the website domain, so SPF, DKIM, DMARC sees a match and passes the email to gmail

So USER puts in his email adress and sends - gmail see it came from the FROM EMAIL in the form .. BUT .. when I am in gmail account and want to reply to message from USER (the person who submitted the form), the reply message defaults to the email in the FROM EMAIL form and wants to send it back to the FROM EMAIL address.

Is there a simple work around for this? And hopefully this makes sense?

NOTE: the REPLY TO field has $mailfrom in it??

You will need to set the reply address to the value of the email input field.
See also the notes about this in the help.

Sorry to be a pain .. not having any luck ... thoughts?

The form field is
TYPE: email
Name: email

In the GENERAL > EMAIL ADDRESS > MORE > REPLY TO I have tried
$mail doesn't work
$email doesn't work
email doesn't work

These send me to error page and no delivery

$mailfrom works

Sends me to success page and mail delivers BUT Reply To doesn't work with this. Wants to send back to FROM EMAIL still

Not sure if this is an issue? Advanced Form Processor Properties:
MAIL ENGINE: PHPMailer - SMTP
I am using my MailGun account

Did you try the suggestion from the help?
$_POST['email']
