Answers.Body: <p>Just saw this, it is possible without building a plugin by hacking the standard contactform plugin. In the file contactformservive.php add:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$email-&gt;cc = array(
      array('name' =&gt; $message-&gt;fromName, 'email' =&gt; $message-&gt;replyTo)
  );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>after $email->body </p>
  
  <p>This will send an EXACT copy to the form submitter. It has one drawback that I noticed; the reply address is also the submitter, so if he/she wants to answer that mail it will return to him/herself. You could add a notion in the body with a standard reply address to prevent this. </p>

  Make your own little plugin that listens to the plugin's [`contactForm.beforeSend`](https://github.com/pixelandtonic/ContactForm#the-contactformbeforesend-event) event
  and sends the confirmation mail.
