Hi @simon28

We’d probably need to see a screenshot of your form settings (with the password redacted) in order to help.

Hi @simon28

Your `From Address` field is wrong. It should probably be [driving@simonandrew.co.uk](mailto:driving@simonandrew.co.uk), same as your `To Address` field.

Try updating that and republishing to see if it works.

@differentdan  
Thank you for your help I have sorted it now . I had to update to php8.4 on my host and then delete a public-html file and then it worked then changed the suggested address so all cool thank you.
