Email form - sounds noob but help me guys :)

I can’t get my HTML email form to work. I simply don’t know what to do. anyone have any good tuts that show to to send an email to my address from my site? I know how to construct the form, just don’t know how to send the email.

how do i make the form point to the email.php file? is it in the action part?

right now I have:

<form name=“emailForm” method=“post” action=“email.php”>

also, i have a name, subject, email, and message fields all labled “name, subject, email, message” respectively. that should work with the code you gave me, correct?
