CFMAIL and FORM submit

I am using PayPal to process member payments through a form. Unfortunately the information collected by PayPal is not sufficient to meet all of my needs. I can get the additional information from a cfquery of my database and want it email to myself when the member clicks the PayPal (submit) button - i.e. generate the email ONLY IF the submit button is clicked

Is there a way to do this?

If it requires scripting I would appreciate a sample script as my scripting capabilities are very limited.

Then simply use cfmail on the form's action page to send mail to yourself.

Thanks to you both for your suggestions. Tried both ideas and went with the one from BKBK. Works great.
