In case, you filled all the fields of the form correctly after clicking the submit button and you set up Send Form Settings properly, but you did not get the confirmed success message about sending data. In this situation, you should address your hosting since wp_mail() was not working on the server.
In the next probable situation, you will get the confirmed success message about sending data but you will not see that email in your mailbox. This means that your plugin sending option is working correctly. However, it is because your email is sent to the spam messages block.

If you cannot find that message in your spam folder, please check the spam settings of your Email Server. If it does not help too, you can refer to the Support Team of your Web Hosting.
