Hi there, I am really new at this whole PERL thing and could really use some more experienced advice. I am busy developing web pages and am using 2 perl documents (presendmail.pl and sendmail.pl). These docs allow me to fill out a form and then click a submit button and the form will send. My problem is that when you receive one of these emails and you want to reply, you can click reply but the email address of the person who sent it to you is not put in the "To" field. Obviously this causes a problem with those people who find computers terrifying. I am using Outlook. As I mentioned I am a beginner, but I do not think that there is any code anywhere that gets the email address of the person who fills out the form. I thought that maybe I would have to have another section in my form that asked for an email address but I am not sure. My perl docs are linked to .htm files....if that helps anything. Hope anyone can help me (let alone understand what I am typing) Thank you
