Typically the situation where you can send to local email address but not to a remote one is because you need to authenticate to the mail server - e.g. use a valid "From" mail account and password.

You're not getting any error message because the send is working out of your server, but failing at the mail server which is not rteturning the error to you.

Your host can advise you regarding the mail components and authentication methods to use with their set-up.
