Which version do you mean with latest Joomla version? Also you are posting in the JSMF 1.1.x forum section. That version is obsolete, please check out my signature for the latest JSMF
As I read your story, I think your host has a special way of handling email, probably out of security reasons. The easiest way to go is just ask your host, that's why you pay them.
A blank page normally means a fatal error in the php code. Please check your error log and post the involved lines here with some info about your server.
I can hardly imagine that JSMF did this. Because you don't need a "Link - URL" in your menu but a "Component - Joomla SMF" link. You create one this way: administration > menu > mainmenu > new > choose "Component" > Fill in "Forum and choose "Joomla SMF Forum"> save. That should do it.
