header("Location: http://whatever.com/whatever");

 

For email, you have to have basically a form, and then put the variables into your email(). Here's the basic version, without the actual form:

 mail($to, $subject, $body);

or as an example

mail ('herestosomeone@someplace.com', 'Email subject', $body, 'From: person@whosent.com'); 

It can only take four options at most, and the fourth parameter ('From') is optional.

The php manual - online at php.net - include example uses for all of the php functions.  Easy to find, easy to use, easy to test.

 

Try writing your own code and then if you still have problems, ask specific questions and post your own code for help
