Quick question regarding the contact form. Does it work with a Gmail address? I seem to be having issues but only with Gmail accounts. It works with custom addresses though.

Hello,

The Forms absolutely works with Gmail Email Addresses. Make sure that you have checked out the Documentation > Forms Section for Complete Instructions on how to work with Gmail Email Address in Forms.

Hope this Helps!

Great. Going through this now. Can I ask, what do I do for fromEmail when I've no email address created under the website URL. Can I use Gmail here? Or should I just create an email address to have as a holder?

$fromemail = array(
	'email' => 'no-reply@website.com', // Company's Email Address (preferably currently used Domain Name)
	'name' => 'Company Name' // Company Name
);

Hello,

It is very important for you to have a From Email (Same Domain) so that the Email Servers like Gmail, Yahoo etc. do not block your Emails or send them to the SPAM Folder. Else you can simply use the Gmail SMTP Functionality as instructed in the Documentation > Forms Section.

This will definitely work fine. Hope this Helps!
