Choosing the Right Sender Address in eForm
A practical mail-delivery rule for eForm projects where user-entered email addresses should not be used blindly as the real sender.
Email delivery becomes unreliable very quickly when a form uses the visitor’s address as the real sender. Modern mail systems expect the sending domain, return path, and authenticated sender to line up much more strictly than older examples suggest.
Safer pattern
- Send to your real project mailbox.
- Use a trusted site-controlled sender address.
- Put the visitor’s email in Reply-To or inside the message body.
This is the same lesson many teams learned later in FormIt and other mail handlers: user input is content, not mail infrastructure.
For Evo sites still using eForm, this one rule prevents a surprising number of “mail stopped arriving” incidents.
