A mailing web pagem is comprised of the following
  1. A HTML page that has the email form on it.
  2. A program that does two things
    1. It processes the form submitted by the web page including emailing out the post.
    2. Returning HTML to the browser to display the results of that mailing, this can either be a redirect or straight html.
The perl typically looks something like this 
$results = &get_form_variables();
$mail_to = &get_mail_to($results);
$email = &make_email_from_form($results);
open(MAIL,'|mail $mail_to');
MAIL << EOF;
close MAIL;
$email;
EOF;
print "MY HTML HERE";
exit 0;
