Very solid plug in, but I must say I only use contact form 7. I feel that I have been intimidated with other plug ins and have not had a chance to explore other ones. I will consider Cforms.

Thank you for sharing.

CForms looks powerful, but unruly.
What about ways to customize the existing Contact Us form page?
I noticed that the fields that say they are required on the form, aren’t really and a blank email will be generated by pressing the Send Messagebutton.
Can we easily turn on the enforcement of required name, email, subject and some message? I’d also like to add the visitor’s IP and maybe a reverse DNS lookup on the IP so I can better identify local traffic vs potential website spam.

I like it when there are less options available and the plug ins are sort of sandardize. It takes alot for some like me to have to figure it all out every time.

Having said that, i like when i have a developer who can birth what every i want. That is the best. But when i do it myself, simple is good.

I am a big fan of Contact Form 7. I agree cforms is a powerful plug-in, but development on it has stopped I believe and many of my clients find the sheer number of options overwhelming. It is a very powerful plug-in, but maybe not for a "newbie" to WordPress.
