mail() will return TRUE "if the mail was successfully accepted for delivery", so I guess have the form submit to the same page, handle the data using PHP at the top, save the return value of the mail() function in a variable, and handle that boolean value in that variable in order to display what you want to display.

php mail()

Returns TRUE if the mail was successfully accepted for delivery, FALSE otherwise.
this will help. There are some examples.
Remember! accepted for delivery is NOT the same as Delivered!
