    Allowing your customer to submit a form to multiple email addresses

    Right now i have a form with a designated email address(mine).  When my customer fills out the form and submits, it of course needs to come to me and it does.  Now what i want to do is allow that customer to designate "courtesy copies"...like you can in a regular email.  Now these courtesy copies, i don't know off hand so i can't set them automatically.  Is there a way to allow the customer when submitting to designate their own Courtesy copy addresses?  As of now, when you click submit on my form, the message comes up letting you know who the To: address is(since i preset this)...it also shows CC: and BCC blocks but you can't type in these blocks.  Would be nice if these blocks were open to allow the customer to complete the CC: or BCC block.  Please tell me there is a way!  Thanks smart people!

    Hello Terry,

    Welcome to the forum!

    This is indeed possible. What I would do is add a field in the form where the customer can enter a CC email address. And then in the Email submit data connection, set Cc to the corresponding field that you added. You can add a rule in your Submit to display a dialog box prompting the customer to enter a Cc email address (if that field is blank). This way, the form won't submit unless the Cc field is filled out.

    Cheers!

    I believe you would need two rules:

    the first rule would run if the CC textbox was blank: i.e. If field1 is blank then show Message

    the second rule would run if the CC textbox was not blank: i.e. If field1 is not blank then submit
