Hi,
You need to learn a touch of PHP. Try my free beginners videos at www.killerphp.com.
If you are impatient, you can watch my videos on processing forms with PHP. This part of the course shows you how to process a form and then to send the results to an email address.
Hope that helps,
Stefan
...and if you're very impatient, you can get simplified code here:-

You may need security codes as well later and Stefan's videos deal with it in more detail.
Or you can use a premade script. Example: Tectite FormMail
In my third video the script is all there for you to use.
... It isn't that hard and at the same time, you gain important web design related skills.

Thanks to all. Susie, I went to the tectite formmail site and downloaded a customized php file. When I try to upload it to my web site, as directed, I get a message that says: Do you want to copy the selected folder structure(s)? If I say "yes" I get an error message that says "transfer failed" 550/nfs/cust/5/8/4/(username):no such file or directory. Is it that the server does not recognize the php file?
