MONO / .NET 4-ASP.NET使用Google SMTP从页面发送电子邮件

Question

I dont know why, when I run this code which is called in the button onlick event handler, the page freezes and never comes back to be interactive.

And of course I dont recive an email.

public virtual void button1Clicked (object sender, EventArgs args)
    {

        SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 465);

        smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("my correct gmail adress", "my correct gmail account password");

        smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
        smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
        smtpClient.Timeout = 5;
        MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();           

        mail.From = new MailAddress("my correct gmail adress", "My Site");
        mail.To.Add(new MailAddress("other correct email adress"));

        mail.Body = "Hello";

        smtpClient.Send(mail);
    }

I couldnt find the answer - so I started this question.

Maybe I am not specific enough, but also maybe sombody had problem like this and solved it.

Thanks JS

If you are using the System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient :

1) You are using "smtp.gmail.com", port should be 587, not 465

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587);

2) Import the root cert and gmail ssl cert if you have not:

sudo mozroots --import --ask-remove
sudo certmgr -ssl smtps://smtp.gmail.com:465

3) Throw some security out the window to allow older TLS connections

    ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate { return true; };
    SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587 );
    smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;

3) Run the program again, it will likely fail unless Google/Gmail is setup to accept ' less secure apps '

4) Log in to Gmail, look for the email they sent you concerning external account access. Follow the link to enable less secure apps.

5) Try your app again.

Note: I use MailKit via source or Nuget for gmail and other services. IMHO much cleaner and supported.
