Hi all,
I've started using the Contact form that comes with Drupal and have been successful in implementing it into my website. However, is there a way to add a field, say phone number, to it? Right now it has the following fields:

Your name:
Your email:
Subject:
Message:

Any help appreciated, thanks!

I'm sort of new at this, but as I look at the form there's no place to add a new field. To do so would probably require that you add a Cck field to the form, but that doesn't seem possible. I went to content type to see if we got something to edit, and not so. Therefore we either produce a new contact form using webform.. a great module that would do the trick (provide a url, stick it on the menu, and add your form elements as you like!).. or we live with what we've got.

In the nice contact form there is an "additional information" text area which displays under the line at the top. Here's where you can write a gracious message and you could suggest that in the message area you'd appreciate their sharing a phone number for you to contact if that would be a contact option that they'd like you to entertain;-)

Yeah webform is fine but if you have several categories and the mail going several ways depending on the selected category how do you sort that out ?
