Mailform implementations

    Hallo,
    since privacy and security are very important for your plugin, I suggest a few implementation you can evaluate:

    1) when I write more then a recipient, each of them can see the email address of the other recipient. As a sender, I’d like a check box for BCC email, so that I can decide if I want the recipient see the other email address or not. As an admin, I’d like an option to control the default value of the check box for BCC option;

    2) as a sender, I’d like a ‘Send me a copy’ check box (unnecessary if I had BCC at point 1);

    3) as an admin, since I use a Captcha plugin to prevent system abuse and spam control, i’d like the Mailform had a captcha control (own or derived by the third party plugin).

    Thanks in advance.

    Bye, Pier

    1) is a bug with the new designed mail form. Will be fixed with the next update on wordpress and is fixed on github.

    2) I do not think that it is a good idea to get a BCC of an email that somebody send to somebody else. Under some conditions this could be a criminal offense! At least in Germany. So I do not want add this function. However if do you really want/need a copy of any email send by your server and do you use postfix as MTA please have a look at the config option always_bcc and sender_bcc_maps.

    3) Captcha are a plague ?? I like the teergrube that we have already in the plugin. I think this is a better way to prevent abuse. However perhaps we will add a captcha option in the future too.

    Hello,
    for point 2 I was misunderstood!!!

    I don’t want the site owner receive a BCC email that someone sent to someone else, but I intended to give the visitor the opportunity to receive himself the email he sent to someone else!!!

    Fixing point 1, this feature is unnecessary, because the visitor can put his own mail among the recipients.

    Thank you for you answers,

    Pier
