The only problem with setting up and email address that has a server side rule that forwards all mails to a list of email addresses is that it would also forward all spam. I would assume Wix has some mechanism like Captia that keeps robots from sending spam from their email link/form.
This is one of the reasons I prefer contact forms.

Mailto is a honeypot. You end up getting more spam to the address than useful contacts.

It also requires the visitors mail app to be invoked which to me is not the best user experience. Even though it auto invokes it still feels like extra steps and each extra step results in abandonment.

A simple contact form with captcha is better for both the visitor and site owner.
