Newbie Question- Basic HTML email method="post"

I created a basic HTML email method="post" form which is working; however, the following message comes up when you hit submit.
'This form is being submitted using email. Submitting the form will reveal your email address to the recipient, and will send the form without encrypting it for privacy....'
After you choose 'OK'
you get the following message 'A program is trying to automatically send email on your behalf. Do you want to allow this? If this is unexpected, it may be a virus and you should choose no.'

Question: 1. How do I get rid of these messages?
2. How do I get the user to return to the homepage after submitting the form?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

you are using a html email form - you cant get rid of it, - try a php form ( if you have php ability on your host ) - you can find loads of scripts on google

Thanks for your response.

Can I use PHP for the feedback form in conjunction with our html pages?

You can do just about anything with PHP. Outline the sequence of events you would like to happen and then we can give you some pointers.
