    Few things to note:

    Your from has 2 .com so, probability of your message going in SPAM is almost 90%.

    Check your phpinfo(); output. What does sendmail_path show? Do you have that software installed? Ideally it is /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i and the software is sendmail in ubuntu machines.
    Also, in your phpinfo(), check the SMTP port. Also there is a high possibility of getting blocked by a firewall or similar software, checked it already?
