Message ID made from form field  (See more user questions)

Hi M.

I have made that change for you. Script attached.

It assumes the surname field on the form is "surname". If it isn't, change the line of code accordingly. This is the custom line of code:

if($message_id){$_REQUEST["Message ID"] = $_REQUEST["surname"] . " - " . mt_rand(1000,9999);}

Any questions, just let me know.

Best wishes.
