PHP Mailer

I already have a page on my website containing several boxes "Poll name" "Your Email" and "Friends Email" and "Name". I want the user to be able to enter their email and their friends email, when they click submit I already have this information being written to a mysql db, however I also want a customized thank you email to be sent to the user, in this email I want a placeholder from the "poll name" box eg) the url to vote on your poll is http://{Name} [login to view URL] and the url to view your results is http://{Name} -results.php. I want the email addresses in the "Friends Email" box to also receive an email eg) "John" has sent you a poll, please follow the link to vote on his poll, again with a hyperlink in this email to the voting page http://{Name} [login to view URL]
