I have been wondering what protocol is used to return the info in a web
form. E.g. the mailto: protocol. I take it this is not SMTP. But is it
HTTP; is it FTP; is it...?

Usually HTTP (or HTTPS depending on the URL of the page and the target attribute of the HTML form) - depending on specifications in the HTML, either a GET or POST request is used (the recommendation is to use GET when performing searches etc. that are repeatable and the resulting link can be bookmarked or handed to others, while using POST in other cases).
