send form data as email in Magento

How can I send form data to a preset email address in Magento (like how the contact form works) ?

EDIT : What I开发者_运维知识库'm trying is to have a form in a static block which when submitted, sends the form data to an email address (admin@mystore.com)

im not sure what you need. Heres an example for a custom static formular. All you need is to create a phtml template and this add into a cms page.

in RTE:

{{block type="core/template" name="myformular" template="contacts/myformular.phtml"}} 

or in xml layout

<reference name="content">
    <block type="core/template" name="myformular" template="contacts/myformular.phtml" />
</reference>

inside that phtml file you can design your mail with plain php

// Send mail:
$mail = Mage::getModel('core/email')
    ->setToName('Prajapati jignesh')
    ->setToEmail('jignesh@gmail.com')
    ->setBody('Message body')
    ->setSubject('Message subject')
    ->setType('text'); // or html
try{
    $mail->send();
}
catch(Exception $error)
{
    // Could not send email
}
