A most basic question begs a most basic answer:
<?
if (!$_POST['submit']){ // Display form
?>
<html>
<head>
<title>Dropdown Value to Email</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="POST" action="<? echo
$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>">
<select name="loan_process">
<option value="Purchase">Purchase</option>
<option value="Construct">Construct Home</option>
</select><input type="submit" value="Submit"
name="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
<?
}else{ // Mail form results
if(mail('recipient@example.com','Dropdown
results',$_POST['loan_process'])){
echo 'Mail sent!';}
else {
echo 'Mail NOT sent!';}
