do you use php's mail() command in any of your scripts?

I have found that if you need to make a form like this, the "TO" should always be hardcoded to your email (IE: Don't pass your email from the submit form). That means that the only person getting the spam is you.

You can also use hidden values on the form to assure that the message in fact comes from your form and not as a direct access. You can also track the last IP address to access the form, and limit the next use to be a different IP, or similar.
