I've used one shared hosting provided that offered the PEAR Mail module
which could be used to connect to whatever SMTP server you liked (one of
which was their own). It was a while ago, but I think you get better
error messages from it, though nothing is going to beat getting the
server's logs for diagnosing the problem.
