Wouldn't it be better to select PHP mail instead of SMTP...?

If mail() is disabled on the server, then SMTP is the only option.

It would be better (in fact, it would actually work) if you use the one your host has set up. Many of them don't allow SMTP, some don't allow PHP mail(). Run the test and see if it sends mail. (Put in your email address, so you'll get the email if it works.)
