1. You would need to contact your host about this to get the server's mail logs for a mail that failed.

2. It's possible this may be related to the setup of 1, but you need to check with your host about their SMTP limitations. It sounds like they limit the FROM header to a particular domain, which is normally the "Default Email Address" (though in contact emails, it's different). You'd need to change that option to that domain.

3. Again, it sounds like your host is limiting outbound connections from the server. You'd need to contact them regarding it.
