A smarter contact page?

Question

I want to keep email addresses off of a client's contact
page, to help reduce spam and spoofing. My goal, if it's possible,
is to have a small contact form next to each staff bio. When a
visitor decides that Sam or Sally is the person to contact, the
visitor will fill out the appropriate section.
Then, when the reader clicks submit, Sally (or Sam) will get
the info request. The visitor won't actually obtain an email untill
receiving a reply.
How would I do this?

Just the same way you'd do any other form - for each staff
person, create a
form, set up the fields, set it to be sent to the proper
person.
Or is your question more about just how to send data from a
form to an email
address? You'll need a server-side script. The best place to
start is
usually asking your web host if they provide a mail form
script.
