1An extension is trying to redeclare a class mailtohelper. This error often occurs to me when I create new extension and forget to rename the class on the helper.php file. Try to disable latest extensions you recently installed and then enable one by one to find which one is causing the problem– MarcoCommented Jan 22, 2016 at 17:03

A 3rd party extension is causing this. The mailtohelper shouldn't be invoked directly. Just use the Joomla mail object:
$mailer = JFactory::getMailer();

instead of
require ('file_path_here');
try using
require_once('file_path_here');
Whenever you need any file to be included in the current page then remember,
require() includes file that previously been included. require_once() ignore the file if it is previously been included in the same page.
try to figure out difference between include(), include_once(), require(), require_once() then use whichever is best for you.
