You can use PHPMailer instead of server mailing as send emails from php not work in most host providers so PHPMailer solve your problem as you can send email over SMTP from php
<?php
require 'PHPMailerAutoload.php';
$mail = new PHPMailer;
//Enable SMTP debugging.
$mail->SMTPDebug = 3;
//Set PHPMailer to use SMTP.
$mail->isSMTP();
//Set SMTP host name
$mail->Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
//Set this to true if SMTP host requires authentication to send email
$mail->SMTPAuth = true;
//Provide username and password
$mail->Username = "name#gmail.com";
$mail->Password = "super_secret_password";
//If SMTP requires TLS encryption then set it
$mail->SMTPSecure = "tls";
//Set TCP port to connect to
$mail->Port = 587;
$mail->From = "name#gmail.com";
$mail->FromName = "Full Name";
$mail->addAddress("name#example.com", "Recepient Name");
$mail->isHTML(true);
$mail->Subject = "Subject Text";
$mail->Body = "<i>Mail body in HTML</i>";
$mail->AltBody = "This is the plain text version of the email content";
if(!$mail->send()) {
echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
echo "Message has been sent successfully";
}
?>
