Make sure your headers are complete:

$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$headers .= "From: aaa.bbb <[e-mail]>\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: PHP's mail() Function\n";
mail("[e-mail]", "subject","message",$headers); 

And if you are on shared hosting, it might be that there’s a blacklisted spammer on your ip.

The best suggestion I can probably make is to try a different way of sending your emails. For example phpmailer or Swift Mailer.
