I coninue to get a dummy from address (Nobody@Kundeserver.de) as the reply
address despite using the form field box. I have also tried using a fixed
reply address but neither works. Any ideas how to correct? I am using
Frontpage 2003

The From address is fixed in the extensions configuration. Ask your host
to change it.
The Form Field is used to change the Reply-to in the email. If you click
on Reply in your email client, you will see the reply to address.

As Dennis mentions, the from address will be a constant even if the host
changes it to something more user friendly.

The Reply to; is definitely important. However, you need to set this in form
properties. It is not constant, it is the users email input. Instructions for
setting this up here ... http://frontpageforms.com/setting_reply_to.htm
