Mailto works if the user has an email client. Mailto does not work if
the user only has web mail, is at an Internet cafe or library, or not at
their own computer.

Usually, when I make contact forms, I include an option to cc the sender.

As an aside, I find it really bothersome when there is no email address
listed for a company, and ONLY a form. There are plenty of email
cleaning programs out there that can clean up any spam as a result of
this.
