Security suggestion for custom email system made on JS and PHP

I have finally put together a custom email system utilizing JS and PHP, in which the content within a specific div is mailed to me from my website. I have given the Javascript, Html and php mail script below so you could get a clear idea, how it works. It works just fine. FYI I am no expert on codes and I just copy paste stuff which works for me.

Please suggest me a few codes to make this system a bit more secure.

JAVASCRIPT

<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
    $('#sendEmail').click(function(){
             $.ajax({
                 type: 'POST',
                 url: 'http://xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/email.php',
                 data: { content: $('#email-data').html()},
                 success:function(data) {
                        alert('You data has been successfully e-mailed');
                }
           });
     });
});
</script>

HTML

<div id="email-data">
    <div id="content">
        some php generated content
    </div>
</div>
<a id="sendEmail"> SEND EMAIL</a>

PHP MAIL CODE :

<?php
  $to = "someone@somemail.com";
  $subject = "FROM WEBSITE";
  $message = $_POST['content'];
  $headers = "From: company <someotherguy@somecompany.in>" . "\r\n" .
             "Content-type: text/html" . "\r\n";
  mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
?>
