Can someone help me with this Html form (in Off-topic)

I want it to go directly to an email without using Outlook, or any thing on my computer. like direct submission to say impygimp@aim.com without using Outlook or AOL. there is an extra space before the Form Tag.

< FORM action="impygimp@aim.com"> <method="post"> <p>
First name: <INPUT type="text" name="First Name" <BR>
Last name: <INPUT type="text" name="Last Name" <BR>
Email: <INPUT type="text" name="E-mail" <BR><p>
<INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Male"> Male <BR>
<INPUT type="radio" name="sex" value="Female"> Female <BR>
<INPUT type="submit" value="Send"> <INPUT type="reset"
</P>
</FORM>

Basically, and I could be wrong here, but I think you need a script on the other end to accept the form post and to process it into email. I mean other than the mailto command, you need something to handle the post and to format it into email. I am certain there are many free server side scripts for handling email, but your web host has to either have it or add it to make it work. It is very likely your web host has a standard email form handling script, but you never know :)
