Add a switch

A switch is a logic action that evaluates specific conditions in a flow. Based on the result of the evaluation, the switch directs the flow to different paths called cases.

Remember that you added the Send copy to me check box to your form. To evaluate the value of this check box you need to create a switch and two cases. One case sends an e-mail without a copy, the other case sends an e-mail and a copy.
