They're not clearly defined at all. They're in your form, but that doesn't
mean there will be a $recipient variable.
The script should be looking in $_POST['recipient'], etc., and if it's not,
then it's assuming the deprecated and potentially dangerous "register_globals"
option is on (search the manual or Google for more info), and so the script is
very old and hasn't been updated for the past several years of changes in PHP.
