If you are on the Free plan or the Free hosting without banners plan, you won't be able to send emails. You need a Personal package at least.

so everything that begins with a $ must change to

$msg = $_POST['msg']
$to? would that be $_POST['to'] ?
$subject?
$headers?
$forward?
$location?



<?PHP
$to = "email";
$subject = "Results from your Request Info form";
$headers = "From: Form Mailer";
$forward = 0;
$location = "0";

$date = date ("l, F jS, Y");
$time = date ("h:i A");



$msg = "Below is the result of your feedback form. It was submitted on $date at $time.\n\n";

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == "POST") {
foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {
$msg .= ucfirst ($key) ." : ". $value . "\n";
}
}
else {
foreach ($_GET as $key => $value) {
$msg .= ucfirst ($key) ." : ". $value . "\n";
}
}

mail($to, $subject, $msg, $headers);
if ($forward == 1) {
header ("Location:$location");
}
else {
echo "Thank you for submitting our form.";
}

?>

The code is right... but you should change the line:
Code:
$to = "email";

Within the quotes should be the receiving email address.
And change
Code:
$headers = "From: Form Mailer";

to your account email address.. but leave the "Form: " part..

But if you're on a free hosting package then you can't send emails :/

Also make sure to set the FROM or TO (depending on the purpose of your script) address to an email account hosted here. Otherwise it won't work.

Yes.. but with valid emails of course =p
and 1 of the 2 has to be your email account from your hosting package.. or so Oliver tells us
