Change the "from" field on submission

    I'm trying to set up the forms to work with a responder. Instead of having the forms generate a submission to email out that is set up in the control panel, I want the submission to be from the person who submitted the form. So when someone fills out a form with their name, data i ask them, telephone number and email address, I want the "from" address where it is sent to have the user's email address that is listed. Has anyone thought about doing this?

    IF this isn't understandable, the users will enter a from field into the form. I'd like to use that variable as the "from" field to the email address where the forms are sent to.

    This is quite easy actually.
    First, make sure that you have an Email field within your form.

    Then go to your admin panel, Emails setting.
    Under the "You" side, click "more options".

    Then set the "From Email Address" dropdown to the email field from your form.
    This way, the from email address will be the same as entered by your users.
