Like Bhuvan Rikka said in the comments you can store the email in a db and then use it to send the email with whatever information you want to send with this:

<?php
$to = "$email";
$subject = "Thank you for applying for the job(or whatever you want to say)";
$txt = $message;
$headers = 'From: [e-mail] ' . "\r\n" .
mail($to,$subject,$txt,$headers);
?>

You must obviously get the email from the database and store it in the $email variable before using this.

Hope this helped.
