OK, I'm getting really frustrated but even the code I downloaded from the site shows the exact same message
When I run sendemail.php I get the following error


Notice: Undefined variable: subject in C:\wamp\www\go\sendemail.php on line 67 Call Stack #TimeMemoryFunctionLocation 10.0004145824{main}( )..\sendemail.php:0 " size="30" />

also the subject and body of the email are full of html tags.

How could I fix this? Anyone else with the same problem?

I had the same problem....here what I did!

The variables :
$subject = $_POST['subject'];
$text = $_POST['elvismail'];
$output_form = false;

should be defined before this statement:
if(isset($_POST['submit']))

Otherwise, they remain undefined.
