A lousy script - html email should always be sent multipart - with text
and html parts. But that's beside the point.
What errors do you get? "It doesn't work" isn't very descriptive.
The fact you can't ping the server may be telling - or it may not. It's
possible the server is not available from your webserver; but it's also
possible the sysadmin has disabled icmp echo requests (I normally do).
