Help with "From" address in ASP version of Universal E-mail

Hi. We have Universal E-mail configured on an old ASP website, supporting a standard contact form.
When the e-mail arrives with the client, they can't click "Reply" in their e-mail software because we were forced, by our host, to have a recognised POP3 address from the domain listed as the From address, otherwise it wouldn't authorise and wouldn't send.

The PHP version of this script is the same, however we can set a Reply To address in the background, because we can still edit this script due to it being PHP.

We can no longer edit the script in ASP so I wanted to ask if you could help us with a manual change to the script so that when our client clicks reply, it replies to the e-mail address that's submitted by the user in the form. The e-mail address comes from a form field called... Request.Form("swpcEMAIL")

This is the ASP Universal E-mail script....
