Use cgi/perl script or server side scripting (ASP, PHP or ColdFusion) or the other option is to go with a free form processor. Google free form processor and you'll find one.

Please read the tutorials, php form handling: http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_forms.asp

Once the submit button is clicked that's when you PHP will come in play. Basically you'll have an if statement that will detect when the submit button is clicked. Once clicked it will get the variables from the form with $_POST[] and then send the email.
