You should edit some options in your server config.
If you don't have access to your server, contact your server provider.
 
You could also try using SMTP instead of mail(), or vice versa.

Have you asked your host yet? It might be them not letting you send that many emails.
 
yes that is restricted by server owner !
i m using shared host .

so i cant do anything?

can u suggest me any application ! i am just dying to send 1 mass email , that to legally registered members on my forum :(,
 
E-mailing with mail() is never a good idea, I always tell my clients use SMTP and as I am a shared host myself, I do limit max e-mails per hour.

Based off what you're saying, I assume your host is using cPanel for a "Control Panel" there is a way for him if he wanted too increase by user the max limit of e-mails, but usually the e-mail don't die as long as you're using SMTP. They stay in the queue and will should be delivered within the next hour.

You can try ordering a specific mail service to do this for you or as other people have mentioned use Gmail has a free alternative solution.
