Required Fields:

_recipients A comma delimited list of email addresses to send the contents of the form to. All of the email addresses provided will be checked for validity.
_fromaddress A single email address to send the form "from". This email address will be checked for validity.

Optional Fields:

_redirect Redirect to a custom page. If not provided a list of all the information that was sent in the email will be displayed along with a Thank you notice (submit the above form to see an example).
_replyto The email address where replies to the generated email are sent. This email address will not be checked for validity.
_requiredfields A comma delimited list of required fields (in addition to those listed above). If not provided the script will not enforce the presence of any fields other than those listed above.
_fieldorder A comma delimited list of fields in the order you wish to have them. If not provided fields will be listed in the order they appear on the form. If provided all custom fields must be listed.
_envars A comma delimited list of environment variables. You can find a list of possible values by clicking
Two of the more interesting are "REMOTE_ADDR" and "SERVER_NAME" which provide the visitors IP address and domain name they used to access your site.
_fromname A name to send the email from. Email will be sent with this name. For example if _fromaddress is "website@corp.com" and _fromname is "Web Form" then email will be sent from "Web Fomr <website@corp.com>". If not specified this defaults to "Email Form Processor".
_toname A name to send the email to. Email will be sent to each recipient with this name. For example if _recipients is "sales@corp.com" and _toname is "Sales Department" then email will be sent to "Sales Department <sales@corp.com>". If not specified this defaults to "Webmaster".
_truncate This can be set to either true or false, if not present it will default to false. If set to true this will limit the fields used to only those that contain values, in other words this will truncate the empty form fields out of the email that is sent.
* Any other fields can be added. These fields can be named anything you wish the only restriction is that they must not begin with an underscore character.
