	If you include the '''email-field''' hidden field in your form, then the field it points to will be examined to check whether it contains something that looks like an email address (i.e. something like ''user@someplace.com''). If it does not, then the user will be told that they must enter a valid email address and they will have the chance to back up and re-enter it. If the field does have an email address, then the mail message which is sent to you will list that address in the "From:" line of the mail header. Note that the user can enter anything in the email address field, so they may enter something which looks like a valid email address but isn't (e.g. ''bob@some-fake-place.net'').
