 * Hello
    The contact form is returning a 403 error on submission (even when just
   clicking the submit without filling in the fields). When I disable the plugin
   the form does work. Can you please let me know if there is anything we can fix?
   we are using version 2.2.6 CF7 version 5.6.3
 * See attached screenshot of console:

 * The form is here:

 * Thanks

 * seems to be working fine when I test your form. Maybe you only get the error 
   when you are logged in?
 * Server side errors like this are coming from the PHP side. If you still experience
   the error please read the part about server side problems and follow the steps

 * Thanks for the reply
    The cause was a blocking firewall, not related to the plugin.
   Thanks for your support.
