Making "reply to" field populate with senders email

Hello, I have a contact form on a page that when I fill it out, the reply address is the websites email address, not the customers email address that they entered into the "email" section of the form.

Is there way to populate the "reply to" with a field from the form?

Maybe my extension can help you. It will automatically set the reply to whatever is set in the email address field.

If you name the email input field 'email' then this will be the 'from' address.
If you name it anything else (for example 'e-mail') then the 'from' address will be the address configured in the form's properties.

Hey Pablo, thanks for the reply. The label for the email input should be named "email" for this?

AM I understanding you correctly?

No, if you do not want to use the customers email address, then use anything but 'email'.

But if I DO want it to use the customer's email, then use "email"?
