Undefine index error

[JJM0926]

I've got a contact form with a submit button where users have to enter
their support information. Some fields are required some are not.
When I test out the form if I leave everything blank I get these two
undefined index error :

Notice: Undefined index: CurrentCustomer in E:\WebSites\mysite\www
\contactus.php on line 9

Notice: Undefined index: ContactMethod in E:\WebSites\mysite\www
\contactus.php on line 19

If I fill out at least the required fields everything is fine.

Here's what the code looks like:

<?php
if (isset($_POST["Submit"])) // Trigger
{
// Email Request
$to = "su*****@myisp.com";
$subject = "Here Is My Contact Information";
$email = $_POST['Email'];
$message = "";
if isset($_POST['CurrentCustomer']) {
$message = $message."Current Customer: ".
$_POST['CurrentCustomer']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Name']) {
$message = $message."Name: ".$_POST['Name']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['CoName']) {
$message = $message."Company Name: ".$_POST['CoName']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Phone']) {
$message = $message."Phone Number: ".$_POST['Phone']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Fax']) {
$message = $message."Fax Number: ".$_POST['Fax']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Email']) {
$message = $message."E-Mail Address: ".$_POST['Email']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Manufacturer']) {
$message = $message."Manufacturer: ".$_POST['Manufacturer']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Model']) {
$message = $message."Model Number: ".$_POST['Model']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Serial']) {
$message = $message."Serial Number: ".$_POST['Serial']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['Message']) {
$message = $message."Message: ".$_POST['Message']."\n";
}
if isset($_POST['ContactMethod']) {
$message = $message."Preferred Contact Method: ".
$_POST['ContactMethod']."\n";
}
mail( $to, $subject, $message, "From: $email" );
}
?>

i advise you to download a secure form that attempts to do some
checking before emailing.
as for the notices, use error_reporting(0) to turn off anything you
dont want, and google for programming standards, there are many
problems with the code as is, formatting, as well as $message =
$message .'blah' etc... I suggest a good read through the manual
before you expose your server and the world to spam and lots of it.

Are you sure this is the code you're actually using?

The notices do not match up with the code you posted.

In place of isset, sometimes it's useful to use:
