    You need a SMPT Server in order for 

    ... mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

    to work.

    You could try light weight SMTP servers like xmailer

    Here are the PHP mail settings I use:

    //Mail sending function
$subject = $_POST['name'];
$to = $_POST['email'];
$from = "zenphoto@example.com";

//data
$msg = "Your MSG <br>\n";       

//Headers
$headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8\r\n";
$headers .= "From: <".$from. ">" ;

mail($to,$subject,$msg,$headers);
echo "Mail Sent.";

    I think one error in the original code might have been that it had:

    $message = echo getRequestURI();

    instead of:

    $message = getRequestURI();

    (The code has since been edited though.)

    You need to add an action into your form like:

        <form name='form1' method='post' action='<?php echo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);'>
          <!-- All your input for the form here -->
    </form>

    Then put your snippet in the top of the document en send the mail. What echo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); does is that it sends your information the top of your script so you could use it.

    EDIT (#1)

    If I understand correctly, you wish to have everything in one page and execute it from the same page.

    You can use the following code to send mail from a single page, for example index.php or contact.php

    The only difference between this one and my original answer is the <form action="" method="post"> where the action has been left blank.

    It is better to use header('Location: thank_you.php'); instead of echo in the PHP handler to redirect the user to another page afterwards.

    Copy the entire code below into one file.

    <?php 
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
    $to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
    $from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
    $first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
    $last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
    $subject = "Form submission";
    $subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
    $message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
    $message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];

    $headers = "From:" . $from;
    $headers2 = "From:" . $to;
    mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
    mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
    echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
    // You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
    }
?>

<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>Form submission</title>
</head>
<body>

<form action="" method="post">
First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name"><br>
Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
Message:<br><textarea rows="5" name="message" cols="30"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

</body>
</html>

    Original answer

    I wasn't quite sure as to what the question was, but am under the impression that a copy of the message is to be sent to the person who filled in the form.

    Here is a tested/working copy of an HTML form and PHP handler. This uses the PHP mail() function.

    The PHP handler will also send a copy of the message to the person who filled in the form.

    You can use two forward slashes // in front of a line of code if you're not going to use it.

    For example: // $subject2 = "Copy of your form submission"; will not execute.

    HTML FORM:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<title>Form submission</title>
</head>
<body>

<form action="mail_handler.php" method="post">
First Name: <input type="text" name="first_name"><br>
Last Name: <input type="text" name="last_name"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><br>
Message:<br><textarea rows="5" name="message" cols="30"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

</body>
</html>

    PHP handler (mail_handler.php)

    (Uses info from HTML form and sends the Email)

    <?php 
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
    $to = "email@example.com"; // this is your Email address
    $from = $_POST['email']; // this is the sender's Email address
    $first_name = $_POST['first_name'];
    $last_name = $_POST['last_name'];
    $subject = "Form submission";
    $subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
    $message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];
    $message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['message'];

    $headers = "From:" . $from;
    $headers2 = "From:" . $to;
    mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
    mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
    echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
    // You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
    // You cannot use header and echo together. It's one or the other.
    }
?>

    To send as HTML:

    If you wish to send mail as HTML and for both instances, then you will need to create two separate sets of HTML headers with different variable names.

    Read the manual on mail() to learn how to send emails as HTML:

    • http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

    Footnotes:

    • In regards to HTML5

    You have to specify the URL of the service that will handle the submitted data, using the action attribute.

    As outlined at https://www.w3.org/TR/html5/forms.html under 4.10.1.3 Configuring a form to communicate with a server. For complete information, consult the page.

    Therefore, action="" will not work in HTML5.

    The proper syntax would be:

    • action="handler.xxx" or
    • action="http://www.example.com/handler.xxx".

    Note that xxx will be the extension of the type of file used to handle the process. This could be a .php, .cgi, .pl, .jsp file extension etc.

    Consult the following Q&A on Stack if sending mail fails:

    You can also use mandrill app to send the mail in php. You will get the API from https://mandrillapp.com/api/docs/index.php.html where you can find the complete details about emails sended and other details.
