what is the URL before you start this script?
where are you requesting the $email from?

if you var_dump($email); is there a valid output?

[akuvidz]

$email requested from the user input, there is a textfield that allow user to enter the email, and after click submit, the script should be matching the user input email address with the one in database, if its matched, then it will send the email, if not match, it means its not in database,,

[Squidge]

what is the output of var_dump($email)?

Is this information transfering?

Instead

if($data == $email)

Try

if(in_array($email, $data))

Check it!
$email=$_REQUEST['email'];

You are comparing $data with $email. Just print the $data array to show what it has .

var_dump($data);

So you should be using :

if($data['email'] = $email){ //depends on your coloumn 
    //your code here
}
