I don't think there's a cookbook recipe for this, but you can send  
the data from any PmWiki form to any form processing application you  
want to.  I do this on my website.  So I have my own form-processing  
application that emails me info from a PmWiki form only by changing  
where the form is sending its data.  I wrote my own form processing  
application.

Did you want that csv file as an attachment on an email?  or saved on  
the server?  Note that forms accessible to the public are pretty  
dangerous, so there's some standards to adhere to if grabbing  
information from a public form and doing anything with it.

If you can find a code snippet or form processing PHP script anywhere  
on the web that does what you're looking for, you could install it  
alongside PmWiki, and just point the PmWiki form to submit its data  
to the PHP script.
