Hi i am not very good in english, but i have read some thing that is : for use the Mail function the host server is obliged to have a sendmail server.
I dont know how to configure that type of server sorry!

Else
it may be possible to use an fai server with this function : 

function envoi($donnees)
	{
		
		
		$smtp =fsockopen($this->smtp,'25',$errno, $errstr, 30);
		if (!$smtp) {
	   echo "ERREUR : $errno - $errstr<br />\n";
		}
		else{
		
		$envoi_mail ="HELO ".$this->site."\r\n";
		$envoi_mail.="MAIL FROM:<contact@".$this->site.">\r\n";
			foreach($this->destinataire as $dest)
			{
				$envoi_mail.="RCPT TO:<$dest>\r\n";	
			}
		$envoi_mail.="DATA\r\n";
		$envoi_mail.= "MIME-Version: 1.0 \r\n";
		$envoi_mail.= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\" ";
		
	$envoi_mail.="Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit"."\r\n"; 
			
			foreach($this->destinataire as $dest)
			{
				$envoi_mail.="To:$dest\r\n" ;
			}
		include("model-mail.php");


		$envoi_mail.=".\r\n";
		$envoi_mail.="QUIT\r\n";
		
		fwrite($smtp, $envoi_mail);
		echo fread($smtp,1000);
		
		echo $envoi_mail;
		
		
		}
	}


Good luck ...
