Some SMTP providers are a tad funny about the MT4 platform, I used to use SendGrid until they changed their security protocols, rendering it incompatible with the terminal. I recommend SocketLabs, and you get 2,000 emails / month free. Plus you just copy and paste the login details into MT4 and go, no configuring of anything.
