zeeshop Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 Hi everyone, When customer filled contact us form and send email by pressing Continue, it send me (admin) email. Before I was using smtp server on local host, and i was able to recieve custommer email address.. since I am using external smtp server, since then email sender is actually my website sender address i.e [email protected]. which means I dont know who is a sender and I dont have a person reply address. This thing started happening since I am using External Smtp server.. regards zee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

germ Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 Zia, You could try concatenating the email address to the body before it gets sent. If you want to give that a try, here's what you need to change in your "contact_us.php" file: Find: if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) { tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $enquiry, $name, $email_address); Change to: if (tep_validate_email($email_address)) { $enquiry = 'From: ' . $name . "\n" . 'Email Address: ' . $email_address . "\n" . $enquiry; tep_mail(STORE_OWNER, STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $enquiry, $name, $email_address); Make a backup before doing any edits!!! If I suggest you edit any file(s) make a backup first - I'm not perfect and neither are you.
