In first place, make an html page with the form.<html><head><title>My first form with PHP</title></head><body><form action="sendmail.php" method="post"><table border="0"><tr><td>Name:</td><td><input type="text" name="name"></td></tr><tr><td>E-Mail:</td><td><input type="text" name="email"></td></tr><tr><td>Subject:</td><td><input type="text" name="subject"></td></tr><tr><td>Mesage:</td><td><textarea name="mesage"></textarea></td></tr><tr><td><input type="submit" value="Send Mesage"></td><td><input type="reset" value="Reset Form"></td></tr></table></form></body></html>OK, now, lets make sendmail.php:<?$myemail = 'yourmail@blah.com'; // Put here your e-mail addressmail($myemail,$subject,$mesage,$email) // To, Subject, Mesage and Fromecho 'Thank you for your e-mail!';?>Simple, huh?Any questions just post here.

THE SENDMAIL.PHP can be improved much further by using the following code 

[/br]<?php [br]/* recipients */ [/br]$to  = $_POST["email"];  . ", "; // note the comma [br]$to .= "any-extra-people-u-want-to-send-email@example.com"; [/br][br]/* subject */ [/br]$subject = $_POST["subject"]; [br][/br]/* message */ [br]$message = <<<END [/br]<html> [br]<head> [/br]<title>$_POST["subject"]</title> [br]</head> [/br]<body> [br]$_POST["message"][/br]</body> [br]</html> [/br]END;[br][/br]/* To send HTML mail, you can set the Content-type header. */ [br]// SENDING EMAIL IN HTML FORMAT RATHER THAN TEXT IN PREVIOUS EXAMPLE[br][/br]$headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; [/br]$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; [br][/br]/* additional headers */ [br]$headers .= "To: $_POST["name"]<$_POST["email"]>\r\n"; [/br]$headers .= "From: ANYGOOD NAME <YOUR-EMAIL@example.com>\r\n";  // Your address[br]$headers .= "Cc: EXAMPLE@example.com\r\n";  // Send CC[/br]$headers .= "Bcc: BCC-EXAMPLE@example.com\r\n";  // SEND BCC[br][/br]/* and now mail it */ [br][/br]mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); [br]?>[/br]


The code in previous example is perfect, but the one above can be used to improve the email exprence
