How difficult is it for me to add some form fields that allow people to email me from my website?

I have very limited knowledge of HTML really so as simple as pos please.

The idea is to have the form automatically send the contents of the email to my phone by sending it to the email address linked to my mobile through my service provider.

I have used websites that allow you to submit queries etc through this sort of thing, is it a really complicated task??

Thanks

Welcome to TWF Smiling

Without knowing what level you are at it's hard to say how easy they are! They aren't hard if you know html.

Try these tutorials for a start:
