The mail is always sent by your server
If you use the Reply-to field w/ the users Email address when you get the Email (from the server) and click Reply-to in you mail
program, it will show you the users Email address

| Thanks for the quick response, but if what you say is the case, what is the
| point of putting all that into the FP form handler in the first place? The
| Help file under this topic, contains the following....
|
| "Then do one or more of the following:
| In the E-mail format list, click the text format you want.
| To specify the subject line of the e-mail message, under E-mail message
| header in the Subject line box, type the text that you want. If you leave
| this box blank, the default subject line in the e-mail will be "Form
| Results."
| If you want the subject line of the e-mail message to contain the results of
| one field from your form, next to Subject line select the Form field name,
| check box, and then type the name of the field in the Subject line box.
| If you want a specific e-mail address to appear as the sender of the e-mail
| message (the From or Reply To line in the e-mail), type that address in the
| Reply-to line box.
| If your form contains a field that collects the site visitor's e-mail
| address, you can use that address as the sender's address. Next to Reply-to
| line, select the Form field name, check box, and then in the Reply-to line
| box, type the name of the form field."
|
| Is this a bug in FP, or is there something else that I have ti do in setting
| up the form?
|
| Thanks.....
