I have a working form but I want the senders email address to appear in the
resulting email. At the moment it comes up as ' XXXX@XXXXX.COM ". Is there a
hidden field I'm missing or sould the cgi be changed??
Be grateful if anyone could help.
Thanks

are you using a pre-written script?
Then check the readme for it. Most of them have a reserved field name whose
value will be used as the From:
Use that exact case sensitive field name in your form for the box they put
their email address in.

if it's scripting you've done, use their email as the From:
(and set a default fallback value for From to prevent errors)
