  Hello,

  Thank you for your answers. However, the pages you mention seems to be adapted to CREATE a form. In my case the form is already created, I would like to know how to CHANGE it. Can you show me a procedure for that?
  Thank you in advance and best regards,

  François

  You’re welcome, Francois.

  If you scroll down, you will see ‘Notification preferences’, that is where it walks you through changing the email address for the form.

  Hello,

  And thank you for your reply.
  If I understand correctly, the method you tell me is to edit html adding to the parameter to=’email address’ in the first tag of the contact form.
  This is what I realized, thank you for your help.

  However, I would also like to know if there was way to modify the receiving email address without touching the html code.

  Thank you in advance for your clarification on that.
  Best regards,

  François
