where do I put my email address?

Donald, all you need to do is place an email field on your form (under Advanced Fields). Then in the notifications area of that form (you'll see a Notifications link at the top of the formbuilder), you can set the admin notification to go to whatever email you'd like and then you can set the user notification to go to the email field you added to the form.

MemberSorry. I didn't explain it very well
I know how to make a field for them to input their email.
I'm asking something else.
The info on the form comes to my email address. However I have changed addresses. How do I change this on the form? How do I get the form to send the info to my new address?

If you are using {admin_email} as your "to" or "from" email address for notifications, you need to change the email address on this page for your entire website: http://example.com/wp-admin/options-general.php
The merge tag {admin_email} uses the email address of the site administrator which is set on that WordPress options page.
Does that solve the problem? If not, you can change the email individually on each form to come from your new address, or go to your new address, rather than using the {admin_email} merge tag.

The form will send to the email address you enter on the notifications tab for your form. Without a URL to your site or the ID of the form, it's difficult to provide a link to the exact WordPress admin page. However, if you log into you WordPress admin, go to the forms menu, and hover over the form name. Beneath the form, you will see a "notifications" link.

Click that link and you will see the admin notification has already been set up by default, and uses the {admin_email} merge tag, which will by default send the administrator notification to the email address you used when you set up the first administrator for your WordPress site. Remove the {admin_email} merge tag, and enter the email address where you want the notifications for this form to be sent.
