You need to stat what requirements you have, ie PHP, ASP etc.
This can be done in Javascript but I recommend you avoid it as the email address is usually hard coded into the page and will get sucked up by email bots then you get spammed.
You could always make one yourself, using PHP there are several functions, like mail() and is just run off a normal html form. Depending how your site is set up, if is run from a database then you can place the person name on the page already so as it's from them and not you (helps to avoid your site getting blacklisted for spam, and cuts back on bounce backs), 8 input boxs but you must validate the input. There are a lot of free scripts out there that don't validate anything which leaves you wide open for sql injections (spammers use your forms to spam) and you get the blame and sometimes punished.
