Separate contact form email from other mails send out by vB?

[dutchbb]

Does anyone know of a way to separate the vB contact form email address from the address used to send out automatic emails?

So that I can use "noreply@mysite.com" to send out automatic emails to members, and use "info@mysite.com" to receive contact emails.

Otherwise I have to deal with too many responses to automatic emails.

(Using a custom contact form is not an option).

Do you want to change the address that email goes to from the "Contact Us" form? You can specify an email address for that by going to the "Site Name / URL / Contact Details" and setting the "Contact Us Email" option. It's also possible to specify alternate email addresses for one or more of the subjects listed in the "Contact Us Options" by putting the address inside curly braces in the option box, for example:


{feedback@myaddress.com} Site Feedback
{registration@myaddress.com} Registration Problem



you could also put a userid there to make the mail go to a specific user, like:
{1} Send mail to admin


(To be honest this is all according to the options help - I haven't actually tried it).

Thanks, never noticed that option, this is perfect.

This should be made into an article, very useful information that many people are unaware of!
