 * Hello
 * I am using an external program that requires the a variable from contact form
   7. This I am looking for and have no idea what it could be.
 * I have been given instructions and examples as below. Does anyone know what the
   variable would be for this plugin?
 * Examples:
 * <?=$email?>
    <?=$form_state[‘values’][‘first_name’]?> $email=$_POST[‘Email’];‘
   <?=$_GET[’email’]?>’; ‘$_GET[’email’]’;
 * Instructions:
 * In order to pass a visitor Identity to your snippet, you must use some form of
   server-side language (such as PHP, ASP, Perl, CFM, etc.) to place the email value
   in the variable
 * Thank you
