                    $calling=preg_match("/ (.*), /", $matches[1],$match); 
                    $calling=$match[1]; 
                    $messages=str_replace("\r\n\r\n", '', $message); 
                    $callback= preg_match("/Callback phone(.*)C/", $messages,$cb); 
                    $callback = ltrim($cb[1], '?');  
                    $name= preg_match("/name(.*)C/", $messages,$cb); 
                    $result=$cb[1];

                    $callcount= preg_match("/Calling number(.*), /", $messages,$matches);
                    $callcount=preg_match("/,(.*),/", $matches[0],$match);
                    $callcount=preg_match("/:(.*)/", $match[1],$match);
                    $callcount=$match[1]; 
                    $date= preg_match("/Date(.*) /", $messages,$cb); 
                    $date=preg_match("/:(.*),/", $cb[1],$match); 
                    $date=$match[1]; 
                    $callscript= preg_match("/Call script(.*) /", $messages,$cb);
                    $callscript =$cb[1]; 
                    $date=strtotime($date);
                    $date = date('Y-m-d',$date);
                    $mail=new mail();
                    $mail->date=$date;
                    $mail->name=$name;
                    $mail->calling_no=$calling;
                    $mail->callback_phone=$callback;
                    $mail->message=$callscript;
                    $mail->save();
                    $mails=mail::where('status',1)
                    ->get();
                     return view('mail', compact('mails'));
                }
                     }


    }

what i want is a java script/AJAX code to automatically always call this function without refreshing the web page

You have to use get method like this and get new message withTime period then use like this

function getNewMessage() {
    $.ajax({
        type: "GET",
        url: "{{url('')}}/mail",
        success: function (response) {
            console.log(response);
        }
    });     
}

setTimeout(getNewMessage, 1000); // 1000 indicated 1 second
