# Custom Reply-to

Customize the reply-to address of your submission notification emails, so replying directly to a notification reaches the person who submitted the form.

By default, if your form includes an `email` field, PipedForm will automatically use the submitter's email as the reply-to address. This lets you reply straight from your inbox without needing to copy the email manually.

## Customizing Reply-To Address

The reply-to address can only be set through your form, there's no dashboard setting for this.

To set it, simply add a field with the attribute `name="_replyTo"` and a `value` attribute containing the email address you want to use as the reply-to.

```html theme={null}
<input type="hidden" name="_replyTo" value="custom@example.com" />
```

## Example

```html theme={null}
<form action="https://pipedform.com/f/{form_id}" method="POST">
  <input name="name" required />
  <input name="email" type="email" required />
  <input type="hidden" name="_replyTo" value="custom@example.com" />

  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
```

<Warning>
  **Notes:**

  * The reply-to value must be a valid email address.
  * If neither `_replyTo` nor an `email` field is present, notification emails will have no reply-to address set.

  If any of these conditions are not met, this setting will be ignored.
</Warning>
