Turn on your error reporting to find out why your script isn't working. `error_reporting(E_ALL);` — Burhan Khalid, Apr 11 '17 at 05:00
thanks @Burhan but where i can find that option.can u please explain more briefly — Sagar, Apr 11 '17 at 05:06
Your condition is never true, because `$_POST['mailheader']` and `$_POST['formcontent']` do not exist. — Burhan Khalid, Apr 11 '17 at 05:11
even i remove $_POST['mailheader'] and $_POST['formcontent'] from if condition then also not works — Sagar, Apr 11 '17 at 05:17

There are no fields with name: name, email, message and nothing like: $_POST['recipient'], $_POST['subject'], $_POST['formcontent'], $_POST['mailheader']

try code below or change the names of the fields in the form

        if(isset($_POST['submit'], $_POST['your_name'], $_POST['your_email'], $_POST['your_enquiry'])) {
    $name = $_POST['your_name'];
    $email = $_POST['your_email'];
    $message = $_POST['your_enquiry'];

/* rest whatever you are trying to do*/

}

This error is because you have not started your mail server, start it. It's name is Mercury in xampp. – Ndroid21 Apr 11 '17 at 05:36
And to configure you can refer to this answer here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15965376/how-to-configure-xampp-to-send-mail-from-localhost – Ndroid21 Apr 11 '17 at 05:38
ok i have started Mercury, then got something like this Warning: mail(): SMTP server response: 553 We do not relay non-local mail, sorry. in C:\xampp\htdocs\pract\mail.php on line 11 Error! – Sagar Apr 11 '17 at 05:39
