We have a option which enables a spam box which asks the user to enter a spam protection code. If the code is entered incorrectly it will not submit the form. Also, the email address where the form is sent to remains null until the very end when all parameters are complete and it has passed all spam verifications; once it meets these requirements it then applies the email address that is entered in the backend of the module.
We have also added a params in the backend of the module where the administrator can enter "blocked words". If any of these words appear in the content of the email it will not be sent.
i tried everything mentioned in s5 site and on other forums.. but the emails are not send to me.. as i am new here i would review this module not so good for new users
I got spam mails in 2 minutes after installation. Developers, what did you mean with security code, that is always the same?

Please contact our support before reviewing a product. The spam code is not the same every time, it is a random code that is different on every page load. There are several forms used to block spam and if all else fails there are params in the backend of the module where the administrator can enter "blocked words". If any of these words appear in the content of the email it will not be sent.
This is a great little module, exactly what I needed! Thanks Shape5!
I like this email module because it is very simple and effective. Different from the claiming there is only one form of spam protection by answering a simple question - that is ok but I agree with another user that a captcha would make the whole thing perfect, therefore only 4 of 5 point. Anyhow thanks a lot for this work !
This is an easy module to implement with formidable features. This combined, it is the best of the many I have test. The configurable text within fields makes it standout among the others.
The module's greatest drawback is the lack of spam protection. I have a relatively small site that receives approximately 15 spam emails per day and a larger site that receives over 40.

We do want everyone to know that in the last week we have made some updates to spam control by enabling a spam verification question to this module. Spam, as we know, is a very serious problem for many sites and this recent update will help protect even more again these spam emails.
This module is great, quick and easy to implement and works a treat. One problem is that the "three forms of spam protection" don't appear to work. Since installing it I've been inundated. This has rendered the form nigh on useless. Putting a captcha with it would resolve the issue I think
I've tried a couple of contact forms, and have had my little issues with each. Download to receivng a test message took less than two minutes!! I'm beyond impressed with this little thing!
One suggestion - A copy to self option would be really nice!
