Yes, this formmail will let you do that. (It will send an e-mail to you for each person that signs up)

Hi There,
I am also new to PHP and am creating an HTML form to accept about 50 separate pieces of data from potential customers. I need a php script to do two things:
1. Check for missing compulsory field data and generate an error message to the user.
2. Generate a simple response like "Thankyou 'Yourname' for your Information" when the form is submitted
3. Email the data to me
It seems like formmail will do all this but I have no idea how to customize it to handle the specific variables and variable names I use in my html form. I am studying Larry Ullman's "PHP for the WWW" at the moment but don't have time to get through it before figuring this out. Has this been dealtt with eleswhere in the forum?
Also, can you tell me if I need to use an SSL certificate if I am going to be taking user information like addresses, phone numbers etc. What is the accepted practice?
Thanks for any help.
Daniel.
