This assumes that you have an e-mail client setup on the client and that it
understands the mailto: URL link.

 &gt; Can this be done
 &gt; &gt;&gt;in HTML?
 &gt; 
 &gt; Actually you can set the form action to 
 &gt; <A HREF="mailto:myaddress@here.com">mailto:myaddress@here.com</A> and do 
 &gt; it all on the client side. Some browsers pop up scary
