Thanks Chad, what I needed was to change the comma "," for "<>". So this solves it:

CloudDeploy[FormFunction[{"Enter one character and hit ENTER" -> "String"}, SendMail["testtest@wolfram.com", {"First Phrase"<>"Second Phrase"}]&],Permissions = "Public"]

CloudDeploy[FormFunction[{"Enter one character and hit ENTER" -> "String"}, SendMail["testtest@wolfram.com", {"First Phrase"<>"Second Phrase"}]&],Permissions = "Public"]

Raul, thanks for noticing. This is a bug which should be fixed soon. In the meantime, you can use an alternate form of SendMail:

co2 = CloudDeploy[
  FormFunction[{{"char", "enter some text"} -> "String"}, 
   SendMail["To" -> "info@wolfram.com", "Subject" -> #char,  "Body" -> "hello"] &], Permissions -> "Public"]

I've taken the liberty of specifying the input variable as "char", and adding a description to it. If you want to use the input (as I have done), a shorter name is helpful.

I may be wrong, but I don't think a control like CheckboxBar has been implemented. The closest option is "Boolean", but you would have to use it for each option. You could make the suggestion below look better with some more sophisticated FormObject options (put all the checkboxes in a single row)

kform = FormFunction[{"First Name" -> "String", 
    "Last Name" -> "String", "Email" -> "EmailAddress", 
    "ProductA" -> "Boolean", "ProductB" -> "Boolean", 
    "ProductC" -> "Boolean", "My Product " -> {A, B, Cc}, 
    "Type" -> {"2 ", "1 "}}, fu][]
