FWIW, yahoo mail works (with an app-specific password), and of course you can send the alerts to a gmail account.
Are you seeing any errors in the log zip file?
Though you likely have already checked - did you look in the spam filter?
This just doesn't make any sense to me since I'm receiving the test emails through the service provider with no problem.
I used to get these alerts when I installed new apps, disk defragmentation, disk failures all of those type of things and they are currently in the log file. It's like these events are not triggering the alert to be emailed.

Have you looked in msmtp.log? All the emails sent should be in there.
Hi StephenB,
yes I downloaded and look through those logs and it has all of the test messages listed in the log indicating "mail accepted for delivery". However these are all the test events from when I was re configuring the email.
There are no events listed triggered by the system for any other alerts the way it was previously prior from me noticing that I was not getting any notifications
