Since you don't have an error message concerning the sending of the email, that means that your email server accepted the email hikashop sent.
The problem lies after: It could be your email server which rejects your email because of its content. Or it could be the receiving email server which rejects it or maybe you have the email in your spam box ?
First, are you able to receive emails sent by joomla (the registration email on the joomla registration screen for example ) ? If no, then you should check your joomla email settings. If yes, then, it might be possible to solve the problem by changing the encoding format or some other option of your hikashop configuration in the tab "mail" (You might want to ask your hosting company for advice about what encoding format, bounce email address, etc to set in your configuration).

We are able to receive email from Joomla. I will check with our hosting to see what they recommend. In the meantime, is there a way to turn off the registration so people can just buy product without registering?

You can easily turn off the user account activation by turn off the corresponding option in the joomla configuration (joomla 1.5) or the user manager options (joomla 1.6).
