Send email receipt with only a portion of the data (or single page)?

Hello,
Here's our scenario...
We have a 2 page form, page 1 contains customer data and fields relating to work performed at a customer site.
Page 2 contains billing data/info that should not be shown to the customer.
We would like to submit page 1, and send the customer data by email, then continue on filling and submitting page 2.
The form can be resumed and part 2 completed after the receipt is sent.
Can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this.
Could this scenario be possible, to include some, but not all of the info in the client receipt?

EDIT
After submitting this forum request, I did think through using a custom email template, which may work for this purpose.
However, if I use {element_1} {element_2}, etc. as the fields in the email template, all the other pretty email formatting is lost, and I only see the text. So, is there a variable like {page_1_data} or similar that retains the formatting, or is this something that I need to format another way (e.g. HTML)
Thanks,
Glenn

@Glenn: Yes, you will have to use HTML and inline CSS to format your email. However, I don't believe it is possible to send an email from a form until the form is submitted.
