If you really need to just send the values from some form fields in an email
message to a person, you can do this in HTML, without any JSP or Java
involved.  You can look at the following URL for some information about
this, or you can type 'action="mailto:' into Google.

However, if you read some of the links that search gives you, you'll find
out that this isn't the most robust solution, for several reasons.  You need
to clearly understand your needs and the tradeoffs of this solution.

If you end up needing a more robust solution, your JSP page will just
contain the form for the fields to fill in, and a normal submit action.
Your server side code would likely use the JavaMail API to securely and
robustly connect to a standards-based mail delivery agent (not Exchange).
