you can have (any email address you like)@your-server.com redirected to your hotmail account.

so if you had
dean@yoursite.com

Add that to your servers email aliases here:
https://www.jamroom.net/dean-venier/hosting/domain_aliases/565/id=2086

and point it to:
dean@hotmail.com

Then any email that gets sent to dean@yoursite.com will arrive at dean@hotmail.com

You're on jamrooms servers so email will be sent out via mailgun connected to our mailgun account.

It looks like your domain name has just recently been changed and there is a message here:
https://www.jamroom.net/dean-venier/hosting/domain_config/565/id=2090

Quote: Pending Email Validation
Email delivery may not work until the primary domain is validated - please allow up to 24 hours for validation

Once that's complete then the site will be able to send out email.

You are free to change it to a SMTP server if you like but its not required.
