Form data does not send to email

Navigation
6

I made a small form for sending e-mail. But when I test the send, nothing arrives in the destination email. As I do not have much experience in this part I could not identify the error, since when I send it does not give any. Here's my HTML: 

<!doctype html>
<html lang="pt-br">
<head>
<? include "includes/head.php"?>
</head>
<body>
<div id="site">
<div class="container">
    <section class="contato">
        <? include "includes/topo.php"?>
        <div class="envolve">
            <h2>CONTATO</h2>
            <div>
                <p>Preencha o formulário</p>
                <form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="mail.php">
                    <input type="text" name="nome" placeholder="Nome:" required>
                    <input type="email" name="email" placeholder="E-mail:" required>
                    <input type="tel" name="telefone" placeholder="Telefone:" required>
                    <input type="text" name="estado" placeholder="Estado:" required>
                    <textarea name="mensagem" placeholder="Mensagem:"></textarea>
                    <input type="submit" name="enviar" value="Enviar">
                </form>
            </div>          
            <div>
                <p>Av. Sumare, 1642 - Sumare - SP</p>
                <p><strong>Contratação de artistas</strong></p>

        </div>
    </section>
</div> 
<? include "includes/rodape.php"?>    
</div>
</body>
</html>

My PHP code: 

$para     = "[email protected]";
$assunto  = "Contato pelo site";
$nome     = $_POST['nome'];
$email    = $_POST['email'];
$telefone = $_POST['telefone'];
$estado   = $_POST['estado'];
$mensagem = $_POST['mensagem'];

$corpo  = "<strong>Mensagem de contato<br><br></strong>";
$corpo .= "<strong>Nome:</strong>$nome";
$corpo .= "<br><strong>E-mail:</strong>$email";
$corpo .= "<br><strong>Telefone:</strong>$telefone";
$corpo .= "<br><strong>Estado:</strong>$estado";
$corpo .= "<br><strong>Mensagem:</strong>$mensagem";

$header .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset= utf-8\n";
$header = "From: $email Reply-to: $email\n";    

@mail($para,$assunto,$corpo,$header);

header("location:contato.php?msg=enviado");

You did: 

// A variável $header não existia mas, se sua conf do PHP permitir, ela será criada
// e nenhum erro será lançado, caso contrário o servidor retornará um erro 500
$header .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset= utf-8\n";

// Aqui você está usando dois cabeçalhos diferentes na mesma linha, o que é inválido
// From: $email
// Reply-to: $email
// E a atribuição anterior é apagada
$header = "From: $email Reply-to: $email\n";

I recommend changing the end of the code to: 

$headers = array(
    "Content-Type: text/html; charset= utf-8",
    "From: $email",
    "Reply-to: $email"
);

$retorno = @mail($para, $assunto, $corpo, implode("\r\n", $headers));

if($retorno) $msg = "enviado";
else $msg = "nao_enviado";

header("location:contato.php?msg=$msg");

?>

In your contato.php file you should treat the $_GET["msg"] variable for each possible value, and display the appropriate message to the user.

The function mail() returns false if it does not, use an if to check if it was sent successfully.

Example: 

if(mail($para,$assunto,$corpo,$header)){
    // enviado com sucesso. faça algo
}else{
    echo "Não foi possivel enviar o email.";
}

Well this is the basics, now you have to analyze how your server is, and check on your php.ini the following parameters: 

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = localhost
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 25

; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/sendmail-from
;sendmail_from = [email protected]

; For Unix only.  You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
; http://php.net/sendmail-path
;sendmail_path =

; Force the addition of the specified parameters to be passed as extra parameters
; to the sendmail binary. These parameters will always replace the value of
; the 5th parameter to mail().
;mail.force_extra_parameters =

; Add X-PHP-Originating-Script: that will include uid of the script followed by the filename
mail.add_x_header = On

; The path to a log file that will log all mail() calls. Log entries include
; the full path of the script, line number, To address and headers.
;mail.log =
; Log mail to syslog (Event Log on Windows).
;mail.log = syslog

First check which port you are trying to send, when I try to send to gmail the port I use is 465 with ssl

I've already had several problems with this function and in the end I ended up choosing a library called phpmailer. it makes sending and debugging a lot easier.
