I don't believe I've ever had email working for this wiki. I've confirmed the account (no dash reply at redcap ) can send and receive email to my accounts at major providers (Google, Microsoft business, Protonmail). The Contact form is useful for troubleshooting. It's showing 

Mail object returned error: authentication failure [SMTP: STARTTLS failed (code: 220, response: TLS go ahead)]

According to https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSMTP this indicates a certificate error on the server side that I will have to take up with my hosting provider.
