(ii).aspx.cs page
===================
using (MailMessage mm = new MailMessage(txtEmail.Text, txtTo.Text))
        {
            mm.Subject = txtSubject.Text;
            mm.Body = txtBody.Text;
            if (fuAttachment.HasFile)
            {
                string FileName = Path.GetFileName(fuAttachment.PostedFile.FileName);
                mm.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(fuAttachment.PostedFile.InputStream, FileName));
            }
            mm.IsBodyHtml = false;
            SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
            smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
            smtp.EnableSsl = true;
            NetworkCredential NetworkCred = new NetworkCredential(txtEmail.Text, txtPassword.Text);
            smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
            smtp.Credentials = NetworkCred;
            smtp.Port = 587;
            smtp.Send(mm);
            ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(GetType(), "alert", "alert('Email sent.');", true);
        }

Note: by using this we can face one issue "

The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required in ASP.Net Application." issue this is because of  gmail security. to over come this and from email should not have any 2 step verification code.

Once you visit the link you need to modify the Less Secure Apps setting and Turn On access to Less Secure Apps as shown below.
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required
