# I'm receiving an invalid replyTo/email error

> Formspree Docs · Troubleshooting · Updated April 11, 2024

If you received an error message saying "Invalid replyTo/email address", this could be the result of adding multiple `email` input fields to your form. To fix the error, make sure you only include one input with the name `email`.

For example, let's say your form contained an input like this:

```html
<input type="text" name="email" id="email">
```

And later you had another input like this:

```html
<input type="text" name="email" id="phone">
```

You can see above that both inputs have the `name="email"` attribute, even though the second one is supposed to collect a phone number. This is a problem.

When we receive a submission from this form we go through this process:

1.  When there are two inputs with the same name, we combine them into a single comma-separated value. So if someone submitted this form with "my@email.com" in the email input, and "222-2222" in the phone input, we would convert this into a single `email` value of `my@email.com,222-2222`.
2.  We treat inputs with `name="email"` a special way. We use the email value to set the "reply to" address on the submission email that we send you. (see [Email "reply to" address](/articles/building-your-form/email-reply-to-address/).) However, in this case, the email address is invalid. (It is a comma-separated list, not an email address.) That's why we display an error.

The solution is to use a name attribute that's more appropriate for the data you're collecting. For example, above, you could change the second input to:

```html
<input type="text" name="phone" id="phone">
```

At that point, your form should work.
