recipient = specifies who mail is sent to
email = specifies the remote users email address for replies

For example, the HTML source for your form may look like this:

  <form method="POST" action="/cgi-bin/formmail.pl">
  <input type="hidden" name="recipient" value="order@yourdomain.com">
  <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Order Request">
  Please Enter Your Name:<br>
  <input name="realname" size="40">
  <p>
  Please Enter Your Email Address:<br>
  <input name="email" size="40">
  <p>
  Please Enter The $$$ Amount:<br>
  <input name="amount" size="40">
  <p>

  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
  <input type="reset" value="Reset">
  </form>
