I've got everything working nicely with 1.06 except that I can't seem to get it to send the email to the customer (person who fills out the form).
I noticed that there is a send_auto in the config.php file and I tried setting it to 1 but that didn't help.
Is there a way to get it to send the email to the address that is entered in the email field and to me as well?
I'm using 1.06 and my form is located at http://kinky-love.net/form.html
Thanks in advance.

Why don't you set the email field to "recipient_cc". Then they will be copied on the email sent.
However, you will need to turn off the referer check. If you're not comfortable with that diminished security or are afraid that you may be open to spamming accusations if the script it ever hijacked, then you should enable auto-reply at the server level.

i don't think that's the right way, he actually wants to achieve "sending a copy of the email to a customer", means you don't know their email address, how do you specify it in recipient_cc?
right? so how to do this?

In that case, I would use server side auto-repy features, a better choice any ways.

Type: meant to write "auto-reply"
Software that works with your SMTP server (eg. Sendmail, Qmail). Also
dependant is your O.S.
Many webhosts will provide this for you in their hosting packages. This is the preferred way unless you are systems knowledgable. Otherwise, it is best if a systems administrator takes care of it.
Examples I have used/seen (Sendmail on a linux maachine - all free - Perl may be required) are:
procmail (usually installed already with Sendmail)
autoreply (http://www.nemeton.com.au/sw/autoreply/)
gnarwl (http://www.oss.billiton.de/software.shtml)
xmail (http://www.xmailserver.org/)

Alternatively, one can have the form send the email to an account that is not retrieved by any email client. Then write a script (PHP or Perl) which will access the POP3 account and process each email. One can gather the "from" from the email header, create an reply e-mail and send it off the the sender and sender. The original can also be sent to any other POP3 box. After this is done, delete the email from the server POP3 account.
So in effect, you get the original email and the sender gets an auto-reply, the script being the transparent layer that processes the original email.
