    Default Hidden Field with Value not showing

    I have several forms which are addressed to different people or for different purposes, but look very much the same when received. To distinguish these different forms I added lines like the following:
    <input type="hidden" name="To" value="ARCOA Webmaster" />

    When I tested this from my computer it came through:
    email: dwrighsr@windstream.net
    realname:
    To: ARCOA Webmaster
    Name: David Wright
    email2: dwrighsr@windstream.net
    comments: test for problem
    submit: submit

    But when I uploaded it and tested it from the server it came through:
    email: dwrighsr@windstream.net
    realname:
    Name: David Wright
    email2: dwrighsr@windstream.net
    comments: test again from website for problem
    submit: submit

    The relevant Form command in both cases is
    <form action="http://arcoa.org/cgi-script/formmail.php" method="post">

    I can't see any reason why they should work differently.

    Thanks

    I noticed that when I send from my computer the From address shows the server name, whereas when it is sent from the website, it shows the sender(my name in this case)

    Never mind. I found a work-around. I used 'To-Recipient' rather than 'To' in the name field. Apparently, the website has a problem with using 'To' as a name
