I'm also a supreme newb so beware.

print "You entered email as $_POST ['email']\n" ; doesn't work because
you POSTed to "feedback.php" not to your thanks page. My newbie fix
would be to modify the last few lines of feedback.php like this:

----------SNIPPET-------------
$email = rawurlencode($email);
header( "Location: $thankyouurl?email=$email" );
exit ;
----------END SNIPPET-------------

Then modify your thanks page like this:
<?
$email = rawurldecode($_GET['email']);
print "You entered email as $email\n";
?>

Second question:
It looks like feedback.php already verifies that the user entered
something (not necessarily an email address) in the email field.

----------SNIPPET-------------
if (!isset($_POST['email'])) {
header( "Location: $formurl" );
exit ;
----------END SNIPPET-------------

Again, I'm a newb so use at your own risk.
