No, but then neither will the SMTP server rejecting the message.
You have other problems also, like trying to echo $msg before the
<html>, etc. are sent. But that isn't causing the message to not be
received.
Of course, getting a blank frame is a completely different problem than
you first reported, and usually means a fatal error in your PHP script.
That needs to be found and fixed first.
