It would be nice to have the option to have the 'environmental variables' sent through with the InstantPro contact form - similar to the 'env_report' option in Freeola's standard Form_Mail.

i.e.
REMOTE_ADDR:
HTTP_USER_AGENT:


Perhaps this could be included in a future update?
Thanks.

I think this is already possible by adding additional headers. After running a google search I found the guide below which should help you to do this.

Freeola & GetDotted are rated 5 Stars

Check out some of our customer reviews below:

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
10/10
Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
