<br> will be rendered as plain text unless you send your mail as text/html which is not what PHP's mail function will do by default, so you need to output newlines (\n).

Change the message part like this:

$message2 = 'name: '.$_POST['name']."\n";
$message2 .= 'phone: '.$_POST['phone']."\n"; 
$message2 .= 'email: '.$_POST['email']."\n";

You could read this as a starting point to secure your script against PHP mail header injections.

PHP's mail function sends plain text (unless you set all the needed headers), so you should use "\n" instead of "<br>".
