 * We’re testing the form with iContact, and when I clicked submit, it showed an
   error message
 * “Your email address was not formatted properly”
 * and couldn’t submit the form.
 * Is this something that can be fixed?

 * Hi Treebeard,
 * it sounds like an issue with iContact’s validation of the email field or the 
   set up of the form.
 * Are you trying to assign a subscriber to multiple lists with iContact?
 * Let me know!
