To be able to run php scripts in a command line (without telling explicitly it should be run with php) you'll need to ensure it have executable bit set and have #!/usr/bin/php as the first line in file. In your case it's probably better to add /usr/bin/php (or wherever your php is located) in from of your script name in crontab:
11 01 * * * /usr/bin/php /var/www/mail.php
