Cannot get Contact Form to send email to my gmail address.

Hi, the problem is explained in the title. Is this because I'm using ServerPress to develop locally? I would like to know how to control email directing. Oddly, when I send a dummy mail, it says it got sent, but where, I have no idea. It's not being sent to the Wordpress backend. I've messed around with the setting to try to find a sent TO email, and I think I have that set OK - to my gmail address. Any idea what the probelm might be?

There is almost every time a problem with gmail addresses and WordPress. Try to fix it with a SMTP plugin. Search for "wordpress gmail not working" by Google and open the post written by wpbeginner . com (sorry, I can't post a link here because of the rules for this forum).
