Try to upload test php email sender to root directory. Just to make sure the server ain't to blame.

Try to send an email from your Smtp mail account directly.

I have had issues before if your password starts or ends with a $  if everything else is set correctly and it does not work then try changing your password.

If you're using an SMTP authentication like SSL, check again your username and password. There's a port problem. SMTP normally uses port 25, but it may happen to be blocked by your ISP: try switch to port 587 (or port 465 if you're connecting via SSL). The SMTP settings are mistaken.
