If you're new to PH, get and use phpmailer, lovely easy class, does
authenticated smtp too, wtih attachments if needed. Has examples.
The biggest problem is that you can code this kind of thing
insecurely, which I am afriad you are doing. You form as it stands can
be used to spam anyone. Don't worry this kind of thing is a common
mistake, but if you don't look into the matter a bit more, and get
something that works and is secure, rather than reinventing the wheel
- probably from an old book you got second hand, you will annoy a lot
of people and perhaps get your server blacklisted.
