As proposed by S.Mark, you can use gmail. Here is what you need in your settings.py

ADMINS = (
    ('Your Name', 'your_name@email.com'),
)

EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.gmail.com'
EMAIL_PORT = 587
EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'password'
EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'gmail_account'
EMAIL_SUBJECT_PREFIX = 'something'
EMAIL_USE_TLS = True
