i'd suggest displaying errors

 

you should be using this code and put it at the top of you php while developing

ini_set('display_errors', 1);
ini_set('display_startup_errors', 1);
error_reporting(E_ALL);

what errors are you getting?

 

ps. please use the code tags so your code is more visible

if you are just learning, start with one or two form fields and get the code to work so that you are learning and understanding how the code works.

 

if you are doing this for real and you have more than about three form fields, you should NOT write out lines of code for each possible form field. you would instead dynamically process the form data, by defining the expected fields in a data structure (array or database table.) you would then loop over the defining data structure and dynamically reference the data, to first validate it, then dynamically produce the email message body, all without writing out line after line of code that only differs in the form field it corresponds to.

 

next, any data you put into the email message body needs to be passed through htmlentities() so that any html/javascript/css in the submitted data won't be operated on by the receiving email client. any data you put into the email header must be validated that it is exactly and only an expected value.

 

lastly, the email is not being sent FROM the email address that someone entered in the form. the email is being sent from the mail server at your web host. the From: email address should be a valid email address at your web host, so that the From: email address corresponds to the sending mail server and so that bounce messages from the receiving mail server have a place to go to.
