I was thinking that for the contact module it could be more useful if instead of the email from the form always going to the email address of the admin.

There are so many different scenarios where somebody would rather have an email go somewhere else if the contact form was designed for communication, say, for something being sold, or something being described, when the actual admin only does support related to the actual website.

If there was some admin features to the contact module, I think they could include various email address with alias' to add, thereby allowing somebody on the form to select different people to address an email to.

Does that make any sence?

In the mean time, can the settoEmails or whatever that handle is, be set from ($xoopsconfig['adminemail']) to a static email address such as user@domain?

Thanks,

Chris

Another idea:

Is it possible to set it to e-mail the person submitting the form info, notifying them that indeed, the contact info was received. I know that they already get that feedback from the browser, but I think it would also be nice to have it generate a separate e-mail to the submitter.

BTW, I wish I had had your idea earlier this PM. I could have used it for site testing.

Try www.brandycoke.com 's Liaise module. This is an extended contact form module with many possibilities, including the ability to set the recipient of the form (group or email).

If I am correct in thinking that groups are cumulative, admin could set up an "Email Contact" group, and anyone in that group would be available in the drop down on the contact form.

Could have it's uses?
