[TYPO3] FORM, defined using ts, not sending to email address

[Andrew Davis]

it seems that what I am doing here is also overwriting the standard 
mailform somehow?

Im trying to figure how to make my form send as an email...

I thought I would just create a normal form cobject the normal way in 
backend, to see what it adds to the code, to rty to figure it out...

but when I do that, even though the form cobject is the standard one 
inserted, it shows as my revised version. have I overwritten the default 
one?

How can I revert to the default if needed?

little worried here...

Any help much appreciated, thanks!
