Sendmail issue

I'm testing a simple three field response form for a site I maintain on Host Monster. The submitted form is intended to be sent to a mailbox in the same domain on Host Monster as well as two cc:'s outside using sendmail. As I understand it, if I'm using sendmail, all I need do is supply the addresses as part of the form property setup. Yet, I'm receiving an error message that the form failed to process because it could not send the email to the address within the domain. I note you've tested Form Builder on Host Monster using sendmail, so I must be having a brain freeze attack. Please help. The test page I've set up is http://stonehousequilters.org/gumby.html . The mailbox on Host Monster to which the submission should be sent is "questions@stonehousequilters.org'.

If you download the latest version Brian, there is a new feature in the software for just this type of problem. Go into the Settings and in the FROM address, enter in an email address that is on this server. Now save and re-upload all of your files.

What would be really useful is to have the email address of the person filling in the form selectable in SETTINGS in the FROM address field, then it would appear in the email client as it does with the original Form Builder.
