 * Hello
 * I created a form using contact from 7. I want to send emails to front end users
   to say them thanks to request something. I am unable to send mail 2 to front 
   end user. Please tell me if there is any other way to send user automatic reply
   on successful submission.
 * Also, in both email template forms (mail and mail2), I am unable to add mail 
   tags in “To” and “From”.
    It generates the error: “This field has syntax errors.
   How to correct this?”. When I go to this link I found that I can put tags in 
   these fields but I am unable to do this.
 * I am putting the “[email-414]” in mail 2 To section. “[email-414]” is my email
   field in form. Which was replaced with “[your-email]”.
 * Thanks
