Sending Email using SMTP gmail in CodeIgniter from website

Question

I'm stuck on my problem to send email with codeigniter.

I've already done successful sending gmail, but the problem is the recipient and the sender are the same. I want this email received to me from sender in website,

There is my Controller :

public function index(){        
    $this->sendEmail(); 
    $this->load->view('content_contact');
}
public function sendEmail(){
    $this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
    $this->load->library('email');

    //konfigurasi email
    $config = array();
    $config['charset'] = 'utf-8';
    $config['useragent'] = 'Codeigniter';
    $config['protocol']= "smtp";
    $config['mailtype']= "html";
    $config['smtp_host']= "ssl://smtp.gmail.com";
    $config['smtp_port']= 465;
    $config['smtp_timeout']= "5";
    $config['smtp_user']= "my_email$gmail.com";
    $config['smtp_pass']= "my_pass";            
    $config['crlf']="\r\n";
    $config['newline']="\r\n";

    $config['wordwrap'] = TRUE;
    $this->load->view('content_contact');

    $this->email->initialize($config);
    $this->email->from($this->input->post('from'));
    $this->email->to("my_email@gmail.com");
    $this->email->subject($this->input->post('subject'));
    $this->email->message($this->input->post('isi'));

    if($this->email->send()){
        echo "pengiriman email Success";
    }
    else{
        echo "pengiriman email Failed";
    }

}

And This is my View : content_contact.php content_contact.php
