You /can/ make mailto:me@mydomain.invalid the form action:
<form method="post" action="mailto:etc...>  But it isn't very reliable for
a variety of reasons which are detailed in the newsgroup at least half a
dozen times a week.  The best way is with a serverside script; they aren't,
in general, all that hard, and your hosting provider may already have one
available.  So: what kind of serverside scripting do you have?
