Answer 1

Check the server admin's email for bounce messages. I would guess it has to do with hotmail rejecting it either because it doesn't like your host or because you don't have SPF or DKIM signing set up. Either way, the blame is probably on your server email administrator more than on your code. Email is actually kinda complex to set up nowadays given all the anti-spam stuff you have to do.
You might want to consider using a third party email service. SMTP through a gmail account or Amazon SES so they'll take care of more of these details. This can be set up by the server admin too, or done in PHP with libraries. Is there a SMTP mail transfer library in PHP

Answer 2

this is more likely
if (isset($_REQUEST['email']))
//if "email" is filled out, send email
{
//send email
$email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$subject = 'Order' ;
$message =
'Product Name :'. $_REQUEST['proname']."\n". //these all are example details
'Name :'.$_REQUEST['name']."\n".
'Phone :'. $_REQUEST['phone']."\n".
'City :'.$_REQUEST['city']."\n".
'Address :'.$_REQUEST['address']."\n".
'Quantity :'. $_REQUEST['select'];
if ($email == "" || $subject == "" || $message == "" )
{
echo 'Please fill the empty fields';
}
else{
mail("anything#something.com", $subject,
$message, "From:" . $email);
echo 'Thank you ! we will contact you soon';
}
}
