mail not working :(

Hi,

I am using the function below to send my mail. I am testing it but i cant quite see why it isn’t working?

Any ideas or improvements.

[code=php]
// Calling the function
$user_id = 6

SendEmail(“ActivationAdmin_Confirm”, $user_id);

// The function in the config file
// Send Email //
function SendEmail($message, $user_id) {

// Connection //
if (!($sql_id = @mysql_connect(MySQL_SERVER, MySQL_USERNAME, MySQL_PASSWORD))) {

if (SQL_SHOW_ERRORS == “true”) SamePageErrorMsg(“mysql_connect”, $sql_id);
}

// Activate database //

if (!@mysql_select_db(MySQL_DATABASE, $sql_id)) {

if (SQL_SHOW_ERRORS == “true”) SamePageErrorMsg(“mysql_select_db”, $sql_id);
}

// Query the database //

$sql_query = “SELECT * FROM “.DATABASE_PREFIX.”users WHERE Username = ‘$user_id’ LIMIT 1”;

$sql_query = (@mysql_query($sql_query, $sql_id));

if (!$sql_query) {

if (SQL_SHOW_ERRORS == “true”) SamePageErrorMsg(“mysql_insert”, $sql_id);
}

while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql_query)) {
extract($row);

switch ($message) {

case “Activation_Confirm”:
$msg = “Hi “.$row[‘Salutation’].” “.$row[‘FirstName’].” “.$row[‘LastName’].”nn”;
