Are you able to view the MODX error log via: Manage => Reports => Error Log
Also, can view the page content field that has the contact form within the MODX manager?

^^ Have your website ever been hacked? If the domain was blacklisted it might prevent email from being sent.
That said, check the error logs. If your site is in a shared hosting, send the company a ticket - some weird hosting companies has features disabled by default when it comes to email, user sessions, etc.
What form plugin are you using?

Two ideas:
1. Try the QuickEmail snippet in debug mode to see if the mail system is working. It may tell you what's wrong.
2. If QuickEmail says the mail is working, and you just need a simple contact form, try SPForm.
There are a lot of ways to go wrong when sending email. Often, the from address needs to be a user that's authorized to send email from your site.
