It appears that the contact form message sent to folks that submit a form can only include the following fields: [title], [name_first] and [name_last]. I'd really like a way to echo all of the data submitted in the contact form message. I'd especially like to echo the info in the text box, i.e., their message.
Custom fields in contact form message

I plan to extend the data merging capability of the autoresponder in a future version of simpleContact Pro. I don't have a timetable for that release yet, but it will be a free update.

Memberthis would be awesome. I'm using this form also for a auto response html email that will have the user that signed up email address added at the bottom. I wouldn't think we would need very many fields added, maybe just a |FNAME| and |LNAME| and |EMAIL| fields. I know mailchimp does this, but they have the worst forward to a friend email form, it only sends a link and not the actual email. So I've been using the pro version of this with the html hack you provided...works great!
Thanks again Alex for all your knowledge with this tool. it's really helped me out a ton!

You're welcome :)
My next planned update is for the Lite version, to bring it up to date with this new website, fix a couple of niggles and update some components. After that, I will consider the Lite version pretty much feature-complete and my focus will be on the Pro version and improving this website to support it.
My most commonly requested Pro features at the moment are inbox CSV export, IP address logging and custom tags in the autoresponder. Over the next few releases I plan to add all these and more.

I don't have an ETA for a full implementation of custom tags (it would require an admin interface and it's not planned for the next release of Pro).
What I can do in the meantime is try to accommodate your request to add merging support for the submitted email address.
It's actually quite a trivial code change - I've written an add [email] merge tag to autoresponder hack.
