send from problem

Send form problem

Hi all

The send form action is working fine and we get “forms” e-mails.

but…… I’m getting some strange messages from the pages with the send form action. We have different send form action pages (Example: “get info” or “order now” and so on). Almost every day the send form recipient) gets messages by e-mail that can best be described as “fake” orders. They are empty while there is specified that all fields have to be filled (validate) but only the “contact e-mail” is filled in. It is a non-excisting e-mail address: email@hidden

the scary thing is that the part behind the @is our domain name. The part before the @ is our username at our provider!!!

So don’t think it is regular spam but something else…… Anybody?

If you wan’t to have a look then go to “direct regelen” on the left side of the index page .

Has anybody a clue?

You do appreciate that your validation requires javascript to run so anyone/thing visiting with js turned off - their entries will not be checked.

Oke. Thats clear.

But it doesn’t explain the strange e-mail address. They come almost on a daily base. Every time the same e-mail address.

It started when converting to freeway 6 witch has the send form action build in. before that I used the send form action found on action forge with no problems.

Cant see the email address that you have been receiving from as that is obscured in the online version of FWT.

However there is no reason why you cannot use the PHP Feedback Form action - just make sure it is the latest version.

At least it would be worth trying and see if the problem persists.

Yes but the php Feedback form had the problem that the recipient got a <> instead of the senders e-mail. The nice thing in the freeway send form action is that you can specify that the senders name and/or e-mailadres is shown. That is a huge advantage. So before I go back to php feedback form action I want to make sure that I’m not doing some thing wrong.

In the meantime I changed my settings from HTML5 to HTML4 and back again with no result.

Rob

Only if you didn’t name the email field as ‘email’ under the 3rd Tab in the inspector. I refer you to the Special Names section at http://www.freewayactions.com/product.php?id=019

Just a small update on this problem. I went back to the PHP feedback form action and since then we don’t have these strange messages anymore. Problem solved.
