You're missing the opening <?php tag

You shouldn't just ECHO "mail sent" without some sort of test for success: true of any sort of coding confirmation.

Depending upon the values in your php.ini file, you may need to use ini_set('SMTP', $server);, where $server is the reference to your SMTP mail server. If the mail server isn't valid you won't send anything anywhere.

IF the above is a faithful cut/paste of your file then, without the opening php tags you've functionally no php.
