 * When MM Forms sends out emails to the person who sent in the form, it displays
   WordPress as the sender. Is there a way to change this?
    Thanks

 * I’m having the same issue, did you ever find a solution for this?
 * Mail2 autoresponder shows the sender as ‘WordPress’ – haven’t seen this issue
   with other contact form plugins.
 * thanks~

 * I’m having the same problem. Very annoying, because otherwise it’s the best contact
   form I’ve tried so far…

 * From address had to be [your-name] <[your-email]> and that should do the trick.
   If you don’t specify a From name WordPress will add “WordPress” automatically,
   this is something nasty in the core.

 * The From address should NOT be my-name my-email; it should be the name-email 
   from the person who’s using the MM Forms contact form to send an email from my
   site.
 * Thanks for the attempt, tbelmans, but your response applies to another common
   WordPress issue, not the issue of this thread.

 * Try this: In the FROM field, type in [your actual name] <[your actual email]>.
   So for example, if my name is Bob Doe, i would type in:
 * [Bob Doe] <[Bob.Doe@yes.com]>
 * It worked for me. The only catch is the recipient sees the email as my full Host
   email (bobd@box3455.hostingcompany.com), not the one i typed in.
 * Not sure why this is but it is better than seeing WordPress as the sender. I 
   just told the sender in the msg not to reply to the email, but to send it to 
   another address. Anyone know how to fix this issue?

 * How can I receive the entire form by mail?, not just the notification…

 * @ bsiete2000 : you have to use all your form field names in the body of the notification
   email.
 * If your form is something like this
 *  [text your-name]
    [text your-subject] [textarea your-message]
 * In your mail body you can put something like this :
 * Name : [your-name]
    Subject : [your-subject] Message : [your-message]
 * the tags between [ ] will be replaced by the values of these fields.
 * Hope this helps

 * I can’t get my forms to be emailed to me. They are showing up in the database
   but won’t get emailed to me. I have all the form filled out with my email and
   everything. Any help would be fantastic.
 * Thanks
