I have an enquiry form where once the user click the submit button the form mailhandler.php and sends the email to myself.
I have tried doing this through php but its not fully working as I do not recieve any emails.

Here is my mail handler.php

<?php
if(isset($_POST['buttonSubmit'])){
    $to = "xxxxxxx"; // my email has been hidden
    $from = $_POST['emailInput']; // this is the sender's Email address
    $first_name = $_POST['fNameInput'];
    $last_name = $_POST['lNameInput'];
    $subject = "Form submission";
    $subject2 = "Copy of your form submission";
    $message = $first_name . " " . $last_name . " wrote the following:" . "\n\n" . $_POST['requestField'];
    $message2 = "Here is a copy of your message " . $first_name . "\n\n" . $_POST['requestField'];

    $headers = "From:" . $from;
    $headers2 = "From:" . $to;
    mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
    mail($from,$subject2,$message2,$headers2); // sends a copy of the message to the sender
    echo "Mail Sent. Thank you " . $first_name . ", we will contact you shortly.";
    // You can also use header('Location: thank_you.php'); to redirect to another page.
}
?>

and my form

<form class = "form" name = "productEnquiry" id = "myForm" onsubmit="return validateForm();" action ="mailhandler.php" method = "post">

The code you posted works fine as you may no the problem is offcourse somewhere else. The PHP mailer is so simple here no doubt, so it should work.

Have you tried it on any server or just on local machine?

i changed these lines and no errors now but it still dosent send mail

if (!$_POST['name']) {
        $errors[] = 'Please enter your name';
    }
    // Check if email has been entered and is valid
    if (!$_POST['email'] || !filter_var($_POST['email'], FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)) {
        $errors[] = 'Please enter a valid email address';
    }
    //Check if message has been entered
    if (!$_POST['message']) {
        $errors[] = 'Please enter your message';
    }
    //  Check if simple anti-bot test is correct
    if (!$human = 5) {
        $errors[] = 'Your anti-spam is incorrect';
    }
    // Check for errors!
    if ($errors) {
        echo '<p class="errors">';
        foreach ($errors as $error) {
            echo 'Error: ' . $error . '<br>';
        }
        echo '</p>';
    }
