What is your problem exactly? Is the mail not sent, or is it just malformed? If you are having problems, please add this line at the end of the method and show us the output.

Code:
echo $this->email->print_debugger();

The problem is, message body is not received in mail when i assigned it in variable ($this->email->message($message); but it's ok when i do $this->email->message('this is test mai'); Am i missing something when assigning variable ?

Backtrack. So you receive an email, though with the content missing? Use the debugger to see what is actually sent. Echo the message variable before that. Echo the post variable before that. Do all this and you'll see where things go wrong.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you omitted form validation from your method, and if so my guess is that that's where your problem lies. In any case though, please do all the above to make sure and tell us how it goes.

It says

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="B_ATC_4c1e1c3441d48"

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
Your email application may not support this format.

--B_ATC_4c1e1c3441d48
