Emails not sending from contact form

Hi all,

I can’t get my contact form to work. I’ve spent all day and feel like I’ve exhausted my options and so now, I’m reaching out. I’ve tried various SMTP plugins, configuring my hosting mx settings, configuring gmail settings, and nothing works. Hoping someone will have insight on what else I could do since having a contact form is so important.

For some background:
– I have the latest updates for WordPress and plugins
– I’ve tried deactivating plugins, and reinstalling
– Contact form doesn’t work no matter what I use. I’ve tried Jetpack, Caldera, MPStacks.
– Note that Jetpack submissions gets sent to Feedback within WordPress but not my email.
– My email is a Google business email (I wonder if this could be causing the issue?)
– I tried various SMTP plugins

Is there something else I can do? Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Also, when I tried SMTP configuration, I get this error:

The result was:

bool(false)
