Wootie on "[Plugin: Visual Form Builder] Setting user-provided email as From/Reply-To..."

I have been using this plugin on a number of websites for some time...has been working great.

However, I recently have been moving all my domains to Dreamhost - after which I've noticed an issue. I could see entries being made via the VFB contact forms that never showed up in the inbox.

Looking into it with Dreamhost tech support, they tell me that I can't use the option to set the Reply-To field to use the user-provided email address...because it will look like email spoofing, and sometimes it won't go through.

I've verified that the behavior is as such - if the user-provided email address is on, for example, Gmail or Yahoo, those submissions would never make it to the inbox. However, switching off the option to use the user-provided email address as the Reply-To (instead using a valid email address on my own domain) results in those messages making it to the inbox as expected.

...which is great, but then of course I can't just hit the Reply button and send a response to that website user - have to copy/paste their provided email address to the To line. Which is surprisingly difficult for some folks to grasp...

Is there a way that VFB can be configured (I'm also using WP-Mail-SMTP for the email server settings) so that I can make use of that Reply-To feature, to make it easy on my peeps to respond to messages from their websites? Is this something that can only be done with VFB Pro?
