I have set up several web forms on my web site to gather mailing list information as well as an unsubscribe function and change email address function. My problem is that I only want the users to enter their email address once and that field is the "from" field for the email header. This means that I do not have an "email" field for MLK to ID the user. I can't seem to get "%USE_MESSAGE_SENDER%" to work. In fact I don't even know where to enter this parameter. Right now my work around is to have the users enter their email address twice, once for the "from" field and once for the "email" field!
Help!

Hi Ian
I haven't tested that aspect with Exchange, but I would not be surprised if it cleared all custom data from the header.
You will need to insert the Member ID into the body of the message.

Nigel - I'm working in a closed corporate mail system with Outlook on all of the desktops, and MS Exchange for the mail system. Am I correct to assume that I can't embed the User Id in the messages? I've tried several tests and can't seem to get the user ID in the header.

The issue was resolved in a later update. What version are you using?

Hi,
I am having exactly the same problem with the email: not being recognized when "%USE_MESSAGE_SENDER%" is used. Please post the resolution publicly.
Thx. |

I took your suggestion but it didn't work! The incomming email to MLK, version 6.04P, contained: "Email: %USE_MESSAGE_SENDER%", see below, but MLK issues an error: "E-mail: 9/2/2006 9:48:48 AM: Error processing form message: No E-mail address was found." If I change the Email: field to a standard input field and actully enter an email address, this message works fine!

Hi Keech
Add a hidden field to your form specifying %USE_MESSAGE_SENDER% as the email field.
E.g.
<input type="hidden" name="email" value="%USE_MESSAGE_SENDER%">
