Mail (2) “from” address is always main form’s “to” address

    hi!

    I created a form, and in Mail tab I have following settings:

    Mail (main)
    – To = specific email address (ex: [email protected])
    – From = different specific email address
    – Additional headers = is empty
    – Subject, email body, attachments = just some text and tags
    – Use HTML checked

    Check Use Mail (2) !

    Mail (2)
    – To = [your-email]
    – From = specific email address DIFFERENT from the To address above — this is the field I’m having problem with
    – Additional headers = “Reply-To: …” with another specific address
    – Subject and mail body = text

    When I submit the form, both emails arrive – to destination (main Mail’s “to” address), and to submitter (the Mail(2)’s “to” address). But the submitter’s From email address is always main Mail’s “to” address! I tried both plain email address and “TEXT <[email protected]>” format. In second case the TEXT would be it, but the email address would not be the one I specified, but the one from the main Mail’s “to” address.

    Am I missing something?

    actually, the main Mail email also has “From” = “To” ([email protected] in my example), even though I specify a different address :-/ . Though this email is not a problem for me. But for the confirmation email (Mail2) i cannot show the address where the form is being sent to.

    EDIT: another thing I did – all From addresses I specified are existing address on my domain. But still the “to” domain from the main Mail for is used ??
