The first step is to see if you can send a mail using a very basic call to
mail(), simply: mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]','subject','message');
If that works, then you can move on by slowly adding the code you have
above.
Why do you have two To: headers? That'll mess things up. remove the one from
the "extra headers" parameter.
