Recipient drop-down menu name in the message body

  • Hi,

    In the contact form 7, on the contact page, I have a drop down menu with different departments.
    When choosing one of the departments and email sent to that specific department.

    [select recipient “Department1|[email protected]” “Department2|[email protected]” “Department3|[email protected] ” “Department4|[email protected] “]</p>

    ==

    What I need is to have inside the received message body the option that was chosen by the sender.

    I have tried to place inside the Mail message body a mail-tag:
    [recipient]

    but it is only placing an email address, but not the name of specific chosen department.
    It is very important to me to know the exact choice of sender, as for different departments their is sometimes one main collecting mailbox that arive to secretary. And the person needs to know what was the exact choice of sender in order to refer this mail to the correct place.

    Please suggest a solution.

    Thank you

    The issue solved.
    Used the following link: https://contactform7.com/selectable-recipient-with-pipes/

    In order to place the choice of client (the department name) – the text before the piple line, inside the message text body, I have used the following tegs

    Message sent to: [recipient] — placing the email of the department
    Department: [_raw_recipient] — placing the name of the department before the pipe line – the one that client sees in the drop-down menu choice.

    So, when the email arrive now the exact choice can be seen inside text message.

    example:

    Message sent to: [email protected]
    Department: Department 1
