If you're using the mail() function set the message string to $msg_body.
Then build $msg_body from the form data. If you're posting the form the
variables will be accessible within $HTTP_POST_VARS[], if you're within a
function you'll have to declare that array global first or access like
$GLOBALS["HTTP_POST_VARS"]["my_form_field"]. So, in your example you'd do:
$msg_body = "Hello, " . $GLOBALS["HTTP_POST_VARS"]["variable"];
