Answer 1

Try this it worked for me
// To send HTML mail, the Content-type header must be set
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: yourmail#gmail.com" . "\r\n" .
"Reply-To: no-reply#gmail.com" . "\r\n" .
"X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion();
$to = "tomail#gmail.com";
$subject = "This is subject";
$from = "yourmail#gmail.com";//optional
$message = ' this is my message hello';
if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, 'ADMIN')) {
echo "mail sent"
}
else{
echo "error cannot send mail";
}

Check whether all the arguments are actually set (using ternary), just because the submit is set does not mean that all the arguments are set:
$name = isset($_POST['name']) ? $_POST['name'] : "";
$contact = isset($_POST['num']) ? $_POST['num'] : "";
$email = isset($_POST['email']) ? $_POST['email'] : "";
$message = isset($_POST['message']) ? $_POST['message'] : "";
Check these values and make a condition that you display some error if something is not set.
If you're certain the values are set then you need to change
$ToEmail = 'info#example.com';
to
$ToEmail = $email;
Otherwise nothing's going to happen.
Finally, I recommend identifying your html inputs with a proper id, instead of a name.
Unrelated to the error but yet important to you
Like already pointed out by #Fred -ii-, a proper concatenation (.=) is required instead of overwriting (=) in the second header assignment of $MESSAGE_BODY:
MESSAGE_BODY = "Name: ".$_POST["name"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY = "Phone: ".$_POST["num"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY .= "Email: ".$_POST["email"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY .= "Message: ".nl2br($_POST["message"])."\r\n";
Should be:
$MESSAGE_BODY = "Name: ".$_POST["name"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY .= "Phone: ".$_POST["num"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY .= "Email: ".$_POST["email"]."\r\n";
$MESSAGE_BODY .= "Message: ".nl2br($_POST["message"])."\r\n";
