        $sql = "select email from login where email='".$email."'";
        $results = mysqli_query($con,$sql);
        $fetch = mysqli_num_rows($results);

    I think that two things will help you in diagnosing such problems:

    1. Use try-catch syntax. If something is wrong then you can catch this in block
    2. use SMTP Debug for phpmailer

    this is example how you can use mailer:

    <?php

require('./vendor/autoload.php');

use PHPMailerPHPMailerPHPMailer;

class Mailer {

    public $phpmailer;

    public function __construct($addresses)
    {

        $this->phpmailer = new PHPMailer(true);
        $this->phpmailer->SMTPDebug = 3; // here you can debug
        $this->phpmailer->isSMTP();
        $this->phpmailer->Host = 'SMTP.host.example.blabla';
        $this->phpmailer->SMTPAuth = true;
        $this->phpmailer->Port = 587;
        $this->phpmailer->Username = 'username';
        $this->phpmailer->Password = 'password';
        $this->phpmailer->SetFrom('username', 'subject');
        $this->phpmailer->CharSet = "UTF-8";
        foreach ($addresses as $address) {
            $this->phpmailer->AddAddress($address);
        }
    }

    public function send($messageTemplate) {

        try {
            $this->phpmailer->MsgHTML($messageTemplate);
            $this->phpmailer->Subject = 'subject';
            $this->phpmailer->Send();
            return true;
        } catch (phpmailerException $e) {
            echo $e->errorMessage(); //Pretty error messages from PHPMailer
        } catch (Exception $e) {
            echo $e->getMessage(); //Boring error messages from anything else!
        }
    }


}

    and use it:

    $mail = new Mailer(array('[email protected]'));
if ($mail->send('some message')) {
   echo "mail send";
}

    A good idea is take test by parts, so:

    First of all, ensure that there are no problems with sending emails, and then check your code!

    1 – Can You send a e-mail using the web server (whitout use php)?

    2 – Check if mail() function is enabled on your server, here’s how to do it.

    3 – After try run your code check the php logs in the server.
