Why I am getting "missing recipient" error message?

    When I try to set up an autoresponse for one of my payment forms I'm getting an error message "missing recipient". There is a dropdown menu with the label "recipient" but there are no choices. Further, I don't understand why I need to choose a recipient when I am creating an autoresponse since the autoresponse should go to the person completing the form. I don't have this issue with forms that don't include a payment module.

    I don't understand the error.

    It is required to choose the recipient email address for the notification/auto-responder. There may be possibility of having multiple email address fields on the form or you may want to send different auto-responders to different email addresses provided on the form.

    I have cloned your JotForm to my account and when I tried to create an auto-responder, it displayed all the fields on the forms normally for the recipient field.

    Please try adding a new auto-responder on your form and then choose the email address field as the recipient in the Recipients section.
