As you don't have the whole code, it's just a guess when it comes to the 
problem. I would guess it's your headers that grows for each mail you 
try to send, also simpler to use an array with named cells, see php.net 
documentation.

There ain't any direct error in the PHP code, so error_get_last will not 
generate anything related to this, the false just indicates that the 
mail server rejected your mail for an unknown reason. Also keep in mind 
that true don't mean that the mail was sent, just that the mail server 
didn't throw an error.


Please do not make this as a public web page as email sending tend to be 
a lot more to do than use the mail-function, you need to verify that all 
the data is in correct format, as it's simple to make header injections 
and your web page would then used by spammers until your web host kicks 
you out after the web server appears on blacklists.
Also remember to not send mail to people who hasn't agreed on getting 
mail from you, you may otherwise commit a crime in multiple jurisdictions.
