Email Form With No Email Address

Hello,
I am trying to get more information on how I can help my
clients reduce
spam. I've normally built my forms by using:
<form action=http://www.domain.com/cgi-sys/formmail.pl...
<input type="hidden" name="recipient"
value=[email protected]>
but this obviously puts the email address right in the hands
of the spam
crawlers.
Is there a way to eliminate having to show your recipient
value in the HTML?
Can someone tell me how this is done?
Thanks in advance.

Note this utility has just been updated today to 4.5 (was in
beta) and
includes a number of optional Form SPAM Control fields
(hidden field, timer,
CAPTCHA e.g.) if you find your form being used to send SPAM.

A form field (for a client fax number) on my own web site is remembering my email address used to log into the site. The usual clearing of the remembered entry works OK, but evey time I remember the login it automatically populates this one field with my

The form where this happens contains an email field as well as a password field, so it does have both of the fields that are on the login page. It is used to modify the details of the user of our site and is accessed by the administrators, not the users themselves. To auto fill the fax field (which is named _fax) with my email address is very strange. If I log in as a different admin user then the email address I use to login appears in the field. The password field is also appears on the form and is being populated, presumably with my password. How can Firefox get it wrong and put an entry in a field with a different name, and why that field and not other empty fields on the form?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

First be sure login and password are OK. Sometimes the address starts wit "http://..." and sometime starts with "ftp://...". Try both normal FTP access and Scure FTP access (SFTP). At the end, contact the site's provider.

Where does Acrobat come up with the default email address for a form?

We're testing a form to be distributed for electronic signatures by a variety of clients. I created the original form from a Word document, then added signature fields. I then submitted the form to others, but when they add their signatures and click "Submit" to have the form resent it comes up with another co-worker's name and email address. There's no way to change those fields, and I can't figure out where it is getting the other name and email address. The original document has my name, as does the copy of Acrobat I'm using and the computer that i use to send it. Does Acrobat go to some default manager name somewhere out their in the cloud? Help!

Have you checked the actions of the Submit button? (I know you were the form's creator, but maybe someone helped or the button was borrowed from another pdf?)
If you haven't checked already:
Right click on the Submit button, and click Properties.
On the Action tab, see if there are actions listed (like in the example jpg below)
Select the action, then click Edit and see if an email address is there for you to edit.

When I use a simple form, I get this error message "Form communication is configured with an email address of..." and the person's email address did not get sent a message

I was unable to use the simple form to which I should simply put the email address of the person to whom the form should be sent to. I get this error message:
As a result of this, this person did not get any filled form response. Where did I go wrong and how can fix this.
Second question, I am using GoDaddy.com account and they have their own set of php form. If I want to use their php form, where in Adobe muse, can I insert their php?

Hello Tonchee
If you are seeing an Apple ID that is not yours, then you have purchased content on your iPad that is tied to that Apple ID. You would need to know that password or remove the content that is associated with that Apple ID.

How do you build a form with hidden email address in source?

I am new to forms. How do you build a form that does not have
the destination email address visible in the source? Don't want
spammers to get ahold of that email address. Simple tutorial
somewhere?
I just want just do a 5 field form to submit to an email
address.
Thanks,
Angie

There are only two ways to process form data -
1. Use mailto:[email protected] as the action of the form
2. Use a server-side scripting method to a) harvest the
form's data, b)
process it in some manner, e.g., enter it into a database, c)
formulate and
send an email to one or more email recipients, and d)
redirect the visitor
to some ending page
Method 1 is quite simple, and is also the least reliable. It
depends both
on your visitor having an email client already installed on
their computer -
this eliminates public computers, or home users without email
clients
installed (more and more it seems) - and on the installed
email client
responding to
the mailto call. It is not possible to use this method *and*
send the
visitor to a
thank you page as well.
Method 2 is the preferred method, since it eliminates the
problems of method
1, but it means that you have to grapple with
server-scripting somehow (ASP,
CF, PHP, perl, etc.).
You would have to decide which of these methods is best for
your needs,
but if it's Method 2, then start by asking your host what
they provide for
form
processing.

Problem with former email addresses appearing as options when addressing emails.

When I am typing in the name of the person I want to send an email to in Apple Mail version 3.6, all former addresses will appear for me to choose from, and before I know it I am sending emails to someone's old email address all the time.
How do you get rid of old email addresses so they won't appear as options when you are trying to send an email?
I'm using an older MacBook w/ OS X version 10.5.8, which I'm not sure if it makes a difference with my problem.
Help me, please!!!

Thx so much, Christopher. I am finding out that there are several ways to deal with this issue, and it seems like there's a few different things I need to do. I am finding some under different related questions, but yours was helpful, too.
I went to Windows > Previous Recepients
and sorted and removed old addresses from there
But I also needed to go to address book and found an incorrect address for the spouse of my recipient, so I needed your solution, too.
It was also suggested that I
Right click on the old mail address when it appears when starting a new mail message, then click
remove from previous recipents list
I'll be doing all of these as it comes up.
Thanks again! I'm new to this support community, and am impressed!

Submit button with multiple email addresses doesn't work while the same form with one email address does. The multi email version works on windows computer.

The email comes up when I press the "Submit" button but the email to field is blank.

Hi,
What is the separator character between two email addresses? Is it a comma (,) semicolon(;) or something else?
According to the mailto URI scheme (RFC 6068), you need to use a comma (,) to separate multiple email addresses.
You can see the third example in the following Wikipedia page.
mailto - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Would you double check the mailto value in your PDF form?

Newsletter Form with only Email address?

Hi guys
I would like to add a Newsletter Subscripiton form without the Name and Last name fields.
http://kinship.businesscatalyst.com/About/about-us
The subcsripiton field is at the bottom footer.
When submitting the form I get an error:
"ERROR: An error occurred. Your web form must capture customer name and email address. Please fix this issue and re-insert your web form on your web page."
I don't want the name just email. Is it possible?
When I try to create a new form those fields (Name, Last Name and Email) are automatically added and there is no way to delete them.
Thanks
Micha

Thanks Mario,
I wish we wouldn't have to add names. A better UX is to use email since Newsletters are usually generic and only require an email.
In Any case BC must change there Dynmiac Forms. The use of Tables is insane and the fact that each update requires inserting the form again is very odd.
Back to work now...-(

My account ID is registered to an email address of a former employer. Is there a way to shift my purchases to a different account with a personal email address?

How do I create a submit button for my form? I would like it to send the completed PDF to an email address

Hi everyone,
I recently upgraded to Adobe XI and I can't find a "submit by email" button for my form. I created a button and tried to set up some actions but, I can only get the button to direct the user to a URL. How do I make it send the completed PDF to our designated company email address? I'm not too familiar with JAVASCRIPTS so I haven't tried that plus I heard it may not work with users with adobe reader.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt

Thanks for the input. I think you might have a different version of LiveCycle than the copy I have since it looks a little different. However, I found the answer in Adobe help. I had to type "mailto:" before the email address to indicate it's an email and not a URL. See below.
To collect form data as attachments to email, type mailto: followed by the email address. For example, mailto:[email protected]

How can I copy an email address from the form results while online?

Our form contains a field where the users submitted their email address. But I am not able to mouse over this data in the "View Responses" tab, and copy the email address by selecting the email address and Ctrl C, and neither can I right-click this data field and copy it.
Our organization just switched to Microsoft Office 365, and "mailto" links on web pages can no longer be clicked to launch a native desktop email client program. So the users tasked with responding to forms submitted via Formscentral now have a much harder workflow. They are compelled to download the data as a spreadsheet, just to be able to cut and paste an email address into their reply email.
I suggest and request that the Flash-based "View Responses" tab be modified to allow email addresses to be selectable and able to be copied to the "clip board". This would allow users who can't execute a clickable mailto link to copy and paste the email address from Formscentral into a new email. Many organizations like mine are moving away from native client-based email programs like Outlook to save money, in favor of cloud based SAS web-based email like Office 365.
Is there some other way to enable mailto links where no client email program is installed on the users PC?
Thanks,
-Dave Bartholomew

While I am still looking for a better answer, I've discovered a way to cut and paste email addresses from the FormsCentral "View Responses" dashboard. I wrote up the instructions to help our users and thought I'd share them in this forum as well.
But it would be nice if there was a simpler solution... Can anyone offer a better way?
-Dave B
) Right-click on the email address
) Select “Filter by: …” Doing this will change the view to show only entries that were sent from the selected email address.
) And it will display the Filter in the header of the form.
) Left-click on the email address displayed in the filtered results, in the header of the form.
) A new sub-form will appear, and the email address can be cut and pasted from this new sub-form. Highlight the email address and hit “Ctrl C”, or right-click and select copy.
) Now you can paste the email address into a new email in Office 365. (Ctrl V) or right-click and select “Paste”
) Click the “Clear” button and then “OK” to exit the filtered view of the data.

Multiple AppleIDs with linked emails unable to be switched...can I unverify an email address that I already verified?

There is a major flaw in the design and use of AppleIDs and their use across the entire Apple product line. It could be fixed easily if I could "unverify" an email address that I used for a certain appleID. After over an hour talking with phone tech support they had no clue what to do so I proposed a temporary solution and gave up.
The problem is I had an apple id that I used for iTunes, and I had my main email address which was from MobileMe which got switched over to iCloud. My iTunes appleID is of the form that is just a word and not an email address. Because of this I was unable to use it for iCloud. The email address associated with the iTunes account appleID was my main email address which happened to be my MobileMe email address. Apparently once an email address has been verified with an account there is no way to unverify that email address. I already realized that I would have to have 2 appleIDs , one for iTunes and one for mobile me and I was ok with that. The problem was that the MobileMe email address would not let me set it as my email address because it had already been verified with my iTunes appleID. This left my MobileMe/icloud email address even though it IS an email address in and of itself, without an associated email address. I am unable to associate the email address that I want with that appleID. My solution was to create yet another email account and just use that but now that is causing problems with apps like "iMessage" , "Find my Friends" , and "FaceTime." I want my correct email address (MobileMe/icloud address) to be used to identify me me with my friends and relatives act. not the email address that I was forced to create as a temporary solution. If there was just a way to "Unverify" an email address or merge accounts this would not be a major issue. As it stands though this is a very confusing and incredibly annoying problem that Phone TechSupport had no clue whatsoever as to what could be done. Does anyone know a fix or if there is some way to Unverify an email address that you used (the lady on techsupport said they couldn't).

I've also had this issue and it beggars belief that they could have something so stupid as a policy.
I have no less than 8 Apple devices that I use actively not to mention the family who have more.
I have an Itunes account and have bought a load of music and movies etc.
I also (foolishly) took a MobileMe subscription and hardly used it.
Now, when I try to register for Facetime I can't register the one and only email address that I use.
Apple support says even though they have been using that for purchases on Itunes, App Store, MobileMe, etc etc, I cannot use it for Facetime! And Facetime requires the address so people who know me and know my one and only email address can call me on Facetime.
No, instead, I must use another new email address!!
How totally stupid.
Support are really unhelpful on this issue as well. They keep talking about multiple accounts and the address being used on these accounts. These accounts are Itunes, MobileMe. And who do they belong to?? One person, ME!!!
The last reply from support today was:
Dear Roger,
Unfortunately, there is no further information we have to offer and have now addressed all your concerns. This case is now considered closed. any further contact regarding this issue will be unanswered. However you are welcome to contact us if you need help with something other then this case.
Thank you for understanding.
Sincerely,

iTunes Store/App Store and MacApp Store Customer Support
Ah, NO! You have not addressed my concerns.
It is almost like they don't want any existing clients on Itunes and MobileMe to use Facebook.
I don't get it???? Help........

How can I change my account on icloud without losing all my data and suppressing the former account. I just need to change the email address... TKS

I changed my email address, how can I keep my icloud data without cancelling my former account...?

Hey there Fonz111,
It sounds like you have a new email address you would like to use to replace the email address you are currently using for your Apple ID, without losing any of the info you have in the account. You can update the email address with this article named:
Apple ID: Changing your Apple ID
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5621
To change your Apple ID, follow these steps:
Go to My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com), click "Manage your Apple ID", and sign in.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID. If you are unable to receive messages at your trusted device, follow the guidelines for what to do if you can't sign in with two-step verification.
In the "Apple ID and Primary Email Address section," click Edit.
Enter the email address you want to use, then click Save Changes. Apple will send a verification email to that address.
Open the email from Apple, then click Verify Now in the email.
When the My Apple ID page opens, sign in with your renamed Apple ID.
If you have two-step verification turned on, you'll be asked to send a verification code to the trusted device associated with your Apple ID.
After you see a message indicating that verification is complete, remember to update all of the stores and services that you use with your Apple ID.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling
