$mail->From = "[email protected]";
$mail->FromName = "foo bar";
$mail->AddAddress = (HERE IS WHERE I WANT TO ENTER emailaddress FROM THE FORM);
$mail->Subject = "test1";
$mail->Body = "Test 1 of PHPMailer.";
$mail->IsHTML(true);

form edit:

<input type='email' value='@domain.com' name='emailaddress'>

(removed the double quote)

php edit:

$mail ->AddAddress = $_POST['emailaddress'];

should do the job.
