if you want to use php mail then contact your web host.

you can try using Google SMTP mail like this or you can try using other third party SMTP mail (eg. mailchimp)

web host replied that

* Either FROM or TO address domain part is hosted in server.
* If in the TO address the domain mentioned is not hosted on the same server, and FROM address is something like user@otherhostname, mails will be rejected.
