Just remove @ before mail () to see what's wrong in logs.

If you want to send emails using an external smtp server then use PHPMailler library.

and if want to do it on the same server? – Pratik Purohit Mar 14 '17 at 06:54
Just check if you have already a mail server installed, else you can look for some tutorial that explain how to install a mail server. – Kerkouch May 09 '17 at 10:10
