If your webhost allows the usage of mail(), it's quite simple

---- form.html ----
<html><head><title>Form Page</title></head><body>
<form action="send.php">
Email:<input text="e-mail"><br>
Short message:<input text="msg"><br>
</form>
</body></html>
---- eof ----

---- send.php ----
<?PHP
//As we are lazy, we don't want to set a from address on the mail, as
//it's the place where spammers can inject extra headers and that way send
//spam to the whole world, so we put everything into the message body
$messagebody=<<<EOF
Senders e-mail address: {$_POST['e-mail']}
The message sent to us: {$_POST['msg']}
EOF;

//we set the headers to null as we don't want to add any
$messageheaders=null;

//Here we send the mail to youraddress [at] exmple.net
//We hardcode the address here, or else spammers could
//select to send the mail to anyone else than you
mail('youraddress [at] exmple.net','Form mail subject',$messagebody,$messageheaders);
?>
<html><head><title>Form Page</title></head><body>
Thanks for your feedback
</body></html>

You have www.php.net with the online manual with tons of useful user comments
to get the information you need. Just remember to not trust data that is
posted to a mail form, as there are too many US spammers who will take
advantage of any sloopy coding you have made, no matter if you use PHP, Perl
or even basic.
