How do I send a gmail email in vb.net?

Question

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

I have this code:

Sub sendMail(ByVal title As String, ByVal content As String)
    Dim SmtpServer

A super easy way of doing this(without changing any security settings) is by using IFTTT and my IFTTT Maker.net libary

First, in IFTTT create a new recipe that's triggered by the Maker channel and name the event "send_gmail".

Then, select the Gmail engine and click "Send an email", and replace To with {{value1}}, subject with {{value2}} and message/body with {{value3}}

After that, in Visual studio, add ifttt.vb to your project. Now for the code:

      Try
    makechannel.scode = "your account ID"
    makechannel.fireevent("send_gmail", "TO", "SUBJECT", "MESSAGE")
   'code goes here if done
    Catch ex As Exception
        'code goes here if it fails
    End Try

Then fill in your account ID. You can find it at ifttt.com/maker

And that's it!
