JSP and dynamic email from form on web page

Question

I fairly new to JSP, I trying to create a form the will automatically send an email once an insert button is clicked. But in the email there will be to dynamic fields, like SSN and Last Name. These would be passed in from to textboxes on the page. Here is the code I have so far. Thanks for any help

This how I send out e-mail(s)
'emailBean
import java.io.*;
import java.net.Socket;
import java.net.SocketException;
public class EMailBean {
     private Socket socket;
     private OutputStreamWriter outputStreamWriter;
     private BufferedReader bufferedReader;
     public void start( String subject, String message, String from, String to ) {
          try {
               System.out.println( "Connection to smtp.host.com..." );
               this.socket = new Socket( "smtp.host.com", 25 );
               this.outputStreamWriter = new OutputStreamWriter( this.socket.getOutputStream() );
               this.bufferedReader = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( this.socket.getInputStream() ) );
               System.out.println( "Connected!" );
               System.out.println( "From server: " + bufferedReader.readLine() );
               send( "helo smtp.host.com" );
               send( "MAIL FROM:<" + from + ">" );
               send( "RCPT TO:<" + to + ">" );
               send( "DATA" );
               send("Subject:"+subject+"\r\n\r\n"+message + "\r\n.\r\n" );
               this.outputStreamWriter.close();
               this.bufferedReader.close();
               this.socket.close();
          catch( Exception e ) {
               System.err.println( "Error: " + e.getMessage() );
               e.printStackTrace();
     private void send( String sendMe ) throws Exception {
          System.out.println( "To server: " + sendMe );
          this.outputStreamWriter.write( sendMe + "\r\n" );
          this.outputStreamWriter.flush();
          System.out.println( "From server: " + this.bufferedReader.readLine() );
}And the .jsp looks like:
<jsp:useBean id="mailBean" scope="request" class="EMailBean" />
<%
try {
String date = activateBean.doQuery();
String from = "[email protected]";
String to = "[email protected]";
String subject = "Myserverspy - Activation";
String emsg = "Dear " + to + ",";
emsg += "\nsome text here, maybe recive some variables.";
mailBean.start(subject, emsg, from, to);
%>
E-mail has been sent
<%
catch(Exception exp){
     System.out.println("Exception: "+exp);
%>Just insert the parameters into the emsg string.
