First off - do you have global variables turned on? If not then you need to
collect the data from the $_POST variable.
Also - when you use a multiple select form field the values come across in
an array.
So you would need to access the data using something like this:
$i=0;
while($rooms[$i]) {
$room_mail .= " $rooms[$i]";
}
Then in your mail section replace $rooms with $room_mail.
