Email Notification: adding a 2nd reply-to email

    Asked on March 26, 2025 at 7:50 PM

    Hello,

    When I receive a notification from my jotform that a customer has filled out I want to be able to hit reply to that email I receive and have my reply go to both their email field and a cc email field that they fill out in my form. Is this possible? I don't see this as an option. The reply-to section only allows for 1 selection in the drop-down. And the Additoinal email section only allow static email addresses, it doesn't allow me to select a field from the form.

    Any ideas of what I could do? Otherwise I won't be able to use jotform and this is a huge bummer.

    Thanks,


    Justin
