you cannot use MAILTO in the ACTION value anymore these days.
instead you need to use a PHP or PERL script to process the form information before sending it to your inbox.
if you want, you can always sign up to a free service that does this like http://www.bravenet.com

and... You CAN use mailto: in the action property as you like.

and... You CAN use mailto: in the action property as you like.
because of security issues and a number of visitors that do not have an email client installed, the mailto in the action value will not work on most machines. using a serverside language script will work on all machines.
