do you mean multiple recipents of the form data that is emailed? That can be arranged easily.

I have a request along the same lines. When a visitor comes to my site, I want them to have the ability to send a message (form results) to a particular recipient (not just single default recipient specified by the form generator). For example, there are 14 people who have an email box at my domain. I have a "Contact Us" page at our site. I would like visitors to be able to select one of the 14 people to send the message to. Can that also be easily arranged (I hope so!!)? If so, please let me know how to "make it so". :o) Salaams.

There *may* be a workaround though. I haven't figured out the mailing of the form after the submit button yet so I can't test it. In other words this 100% theory...
Anyway, if you had a dropdown box with the recipients (sales, tech support, etc.) and routed all form submissions to one mailbox, then you could set up some rules on the email server where if the body of the messege had "sales" present, then route the messege to the "sales" mailbox.
If your email won't support this, then keep an email client open and checking mail every x minutes. Set up some rules in the client to forward the email based on body content.
Sorry if this is a crackpot theory, but at least I tried.

Thats an excellent idea infact. If I setup the routing part in the program itself, that would be a *personalization feature* and not something that the general form builder users would use... i.e., its not that common. Therefore adding it would mean more users being confused.. and thats the whole point of the program.. to be simple as hell so anyone can use it.

This would be a really nice feature.
