Hi,  
  
  
  
I’ve tried a couple of things and i can’t seem to get this right.  
  
  
  
I have a form, first name, email, submit. I want to use the first name it the email, Hello Mike. It will be used in a 4 email campaign.  
  
  
  
I just want to type the email, no fancy theme settings, or email builder, just a normal typed email with this dynamic field, how do I go about doing this?
