CGI script form to email

Hi all,

I am desperately seeking some guidance/help for this project. I have
designed a form using html and it is designed to collect feedback from
a user. It is now on a web server, but I don't know how to get it to
return results to an email address when the submit button is pressed.
I have tried using the <form method="post"
action="mailto:bl******@hotmail.com> but this brings up a dialog box
which requires outlook express to communicate with hotmail which it
won't do.

So I presume I need a CGI script to do this, has anyone done this
before who could tell me what I need to do?? I need this done
desperately by Wednesday if this is possible.

Thanks alot

Daniel
