[support] Within a custom module I am trying to send so that an email is sent but I get the error The submitted from address () is not valid.

[John Mitchell]

Adding the 'from' element worked.  I tried adding a 'cc' element and the
email was sent but it did not send it to the 'cc' address.  For now I will
just include the 'cc' address within the 'from' element.
