Here is the basic code that you need:
| <form action="mailto:xyz@xyzhost.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain"> <table width="80%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">
<tr>
<td width="35%">
<div align="right"><b>Name:</b></div>
</td>
<td width="65%">
<input type="text" name="name" size="15">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="35%">
<div align="right"><b>Email:</b></div>
</td>
<td width="65%">
<input type="text" name="email" size="20">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="35%">
<div align="right"><b>Comment:</b></div>
</td>
<td width="65%">
<textarea name="comment" cols="25" wrap="virtual" rows="3"></textarea>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="35%"> </td>
<td width="65%">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
<input type="reset" name="reset" value="Reset">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td width="35%"> </td>
<td width="65%"> </td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

You should note that this method requires that the user have an email client installed on their workstation, and that it be properly defaulted to accept mailto:// links. (Otherwise, nothing, or worse, some other default email program opens.) Also, this is an open invitation for spammers to back a truck up to your mailserver and just start pouring their [insert expletive here] in.

To expand on what Slade said, the above method does not allow users on public access machines (read: webmail) and webmail users to submit that form to you. I'd strongly advise using a backend form processor.
