I want to send an email, but it gives me an error.

I have this code:

Answer 1

Try this - I know it works.

    Dim Mail As New MailMessage
    Dim SMTP As New SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com")

    Mail.Subject = "Security Update"
    Mail.From = New MailAddress("name@gmail.com")
    SMTP.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("name@gmail.com", "password") '<-- Password Here

    Mail.To.Add(address & "@gmail.com") 'I used ByVal here for address

    Mail.Body = "" 'Message Here

    SMTP.EnableSsl = True
    SMTP.Port = "587"
    SMTP.Send(Mail)
