many thanks for the help
yes my current form works since the recipes arrive in the recipe post type

but it still does not work with your model
So I tried this model but it doesn’t work either
I am staying with hostinger
in the function.php file

 
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_save_post');

function my_save_post( $post_id ) {
	
	// bail early if not a contact_form post
	if( get_post_type($post_id) !== 'contact_form' ) {
		
		return;
		
	}
	
	
	// bail early if editing in admin
	if( is_admin() ) {
		
		return;
		
	}
	
	
	// vars
	$post = get_post( $post_id );
	
	
	// get custom fields (field group exists for content_form)
	$name = get_field('name', $post_id);
	$email = get_field('email', $post_id);
	
	
	// email data
	$to = '[email protected]';
	$headers = 'From: ' . $name . ' <' . $email . '>' . "\r\n";
	$subject = $post->post_title;
	$body = $post->post_content;
	
	
	// send email
	wp_mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers );
	
} 

and in a contact page

 <?php /*Template Name: pagecontactt*/;

acf_form_head();

get_header();

?>
<div id="content">
	
	<?php
	
	acf_form(array(
		'post_id'		=> 'new_post',
		'post_title'	=> true,
		'post_content'	=> true,
		'new_post'		=> array(
			'post_type'		=> 'contact_form',
			'post_status'	=> 'publish'
		),
		'return'		=> home_url('merci'),
		'submit_value'	=> 'Send'
	));
	
	?>
	
</div>

<?php get_footer(); ?>
