Try deleting @ before mail

$ok = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

To be clear, the "@" is a symbol that suppresses error messages, so removing it may show you the source of your problem.

 

Exactly what error are you getting currently? You say that you are getting an error but you don't specify what it is.

[fazlionline]

before removing "@", my error was:

Mail could not be sent. Sorry!

 

 

after removing "@", my error is:

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: SMTP server response: 503 This mail server requires authentication when attempting to send to a non-local e-mail address. Please check your mail client settings or contact your administrator to verify that the domain or address is defined for this server. in E:\inetpub\vhosts\fazlionline.com\httpdocs\t4\mail.php on line 57

 

Mail could not be sent. Sorry!

Make sure you've correctly setup the SMTP parameters in php.ini

and aslo make sure that the SMTP server accepts relay

 

in php.ini

 

[mail function]

SMTP = smtp.isp.net

sendmail_from = me@isp.net

 

change smtp.isp.net and me@isp.net to yours.
