You can still use a server to do this.

e.g. in a page in your .chm file (assuming .chm format deals with forms,
I don't know anything about it):

<FORM action="http://example.com/your_script.php" method="POST">
<INPUT type="hidden" name="address" value="someone@example.net">
...
</FORM>

Then your_script.php can sit on your server and deal with incoming form
details, sending out e-mails as necessary.

What do you mean by "using XML as a source"? What is this XML source?
There is no HTML syntax to "retrieve" data from somewhere, that's not
something that HTML does. You could probably do this with Javascript.
