Create a Gmail account and do the set this:
www-gmail.com -> Settings - > Forwarding and POP/IMAP -> Enable POP for all mail
Enable IMAP (not sure if this is needed)
In phpBB
ACP -> Client communication -> E-Mail settings
User SMTP server for email: YES
SMTP server address: ssl://smtp.gmail.com
SMTP server port:465
Authentication method for SMTP:LOGIN
SMTP username:username@gmail.com (need to be the same as "Contact e-mail address:")
SMTP password:gmailpassword
It seems to be a bug with the password. I tried to use 20 character long password with brackets and it did not work. Shorter password did work, so I do not know if it's a limit on number of characters or type of characters.
