I have tried to upload it to two different servers but I get nothing…

here is the code Im using:

\<?php  
$to = "p\_mail@yahoo.com";  
$subject = “Email”;  
$firstname = $\_REQUEST[‘firstname’];  
$surname = $\_REQUEST[‘surname’];  
$company = $\_REQUEST[‘company’];  
$email = $\_REQUEST[‘email’];  
$message = $\_REQUEST[‘message’];  
$headers = “From: $email”;

$sent = mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

if($sent) {  
print “sent!”;

} else {  
print “error!”;  
}  
?\>

…I get the “sent!” message but thats it, no email comes through…
