You will need server side support to do this. Most ISP's have some sort of form email CGI script, but the actual syntax you need will depend on your ISP.

As John says, your hosting provider may have some kind of formmail script which you can use.

If not, there are plenty of such scripts at

http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Form_Processing/

as well as links to remotely hosted services that'll do the job for you if you can't/don't want to use a script.
