Like this:

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, _
        ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

        sendSomeMail()

    End Sub

    Private Sub sendSomeMail()

        Dim MyMail As MailMessage = New MailMessage

        MyMail.From = "[email protected]"
        MyMail.To = "[email protected]"
        MyMail.Subject = "Web Form Feedback"

        ' Grab the text in the txtq1 and txtq2 fields  
        ' from and the webform and then send it in the body
        ' of the email This is not how I would do 
        ' this in a real application but it works as an 
        ' example an should get you started.

        MyMail.Body = txtQ1.Text & " - " & txtQ2.Text

        SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "mail.somewhere.com"
        SmtpMail.Send(MyMail)

    End Sub

Make sure that you do an Imports System.Web.Mail for code behind or the <% Import System.Web.Mail %> for inline at the top of your code. In that example I just put two fields on the webform. One named txtQ1 and the other named txtQ2 and then passed them to the body of am email. In a real web application you would probably want to validate the data in the controls as well as test for a successful email.
