I think the best way of doing this is with PHP. Take a look at these pages:

The best place on how to do this is http://htmlgoodies.com/tutors/forms.html. It is quite good, and a lot easier (probably) than php, if this is what you mean?

Be careful with that:

From http://htmlgoodies.com/tutors/forms.html
Editors's Note: IE Version 6+ and equivalent browsers no longer support "Mailto:" forms as described in this tutorial.  The value of the tutorial remains, however, as far as creating forms.  Please see this article for an update on how to handle the form.


Then, in that other article it suggest other 3 methods, one that uses CGI, other that needs the FrontPage Extensions, and other that uses ASP. CGI is complicated (you need to have permission in the server), the FrontPage solution is kinda crappy :), so the best would be ASP or PHP.
