Hi there,

There are two ways to do what you are asking - one is simply to create an HTML form with action="mailto:youremailaddress@example.com" as the parameter. Once the user hits submit you'll receive an email directly from the user's email address with a name=value pair list of the fields in your form.
The other way is to process the data using ASP (whether it's saving it to a database or whatever) then using CDO SendMail method to send mail directly from your web server to an email account of your choice.

I'm not an expert on CDO but if you use Google to look up "ASP CDONTS" you should find plenty of resources.
The new-look MSDN on Microsoft's website has got plenty of information on ADO, CDO, and ASP along with examples and information on migrating to ASP.NET - found at http://msdn2.microsoft.com. Or my personal favourite - ASP101 - www.asp101.com.

Hope this helps!
