Email settings are stored in the registry of the machine hosting the sql instance. However, in the latest release of v6 the registry keys are in a new location (on 64-bit machines). Please check that the user account that SQL Backup uses has permissions in HKLM/Software/Redgate/.
You should see keys such as: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Red Gate\SQL Backup\BackupSettingsGlobal\(LOCAL) with values like 'SMTPUserName' (Where (LOCAL) is the instance name).
