I have gone through some questions on this topic. All the answers relate when sending email fails all the time. In my case, it fails only sometimes with exception message:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.57 SMTP; Client was not authenticated to send anonymous mail during MAIL FROM...
If I try second time it works. I'm using the following configuration.
using (MailMessage mail = new MailMessage())
{
mail.From = new MailAddress("emailid", "displayname");
mail.To.Add("TOAddress");
mail.Subject = subject1;
mail.Body = body1;
mail.IsBodyHtml = true;
using (SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient("Outlook.office365.com", 587))
{
smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("emailid", "password");
smtp.EnableSsl = true;
smtp.Send(mail);
}
}
checked a similar question here , given solutions not working.
Try this(second answer): Gmail Error :The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required
I used this code to send the email:
MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
msg.From = new MailAddress("sender#gmail.com");
msg.To.Add("receiver#gmail");
msg.Subject = "Hello";
msg.Body = "Test";
SmtpClient smt = new SmtpClient();
smt.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
System.Net.NetworkCredential ntcd = new NetworkCredential();
ntcd.UserName = "sender#gmail.com";
ntcd.Password = "senderPassword";
smt.Credentials = ntcd;
smt.EnableSsl = true;
smt.Port = 587;
smt.Send(msg);
Also check if your virus scanner doens't block your email from sending.

Im trying to send an email with the office 365 smtp, but im getting the following error:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.57
Client not authenticated to send mail. Error: 535 5.7.139
Authentication unsuccessful, the user credentials were incorrect.
[XXXX.XXXX.prod.outlook.com]
I noticed that some things got changed "recently" with the office 365 smtp and the most recent code, that I found, that works for most people was this:
SmtpClient mySmtpClient = new SmtpClient();
mySmtpClient.Host = "smtp.office365.com";
mySmtpClient.Port = 587;
mySmtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
mySmtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
mySmtpClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(email, password);
mySmtpClient.TargetName = "STARTTLS/smtp.office365.com";
mySmtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
// add from,to mailaddresses
MailAddress from = new MailAddress(email);
MailAddress to = new MailAddress(email);
MailMessage myMail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(from, to);
// set subject and encoding
myMail.Subject = "Test message";
myMail.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
// set body-message and encoding
myMail.Body = "<b>Test Mail</b><br>using <b>HTML</b>.";
myMail.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
// text or html
myMail.IsBodyHtml = true;
mySmtpClient.Send(myMail);
But Im still getting the same error as before (MustIssueStartTlsFirst).
Anyone know the problem?
I have an console app and I am trying to send mail from it.
My code.
MailMessage message = new MailMessage(MailSender, "ToMe#me.com");
message.Subject = "Using the new SMTP client.";
message.Body = #"Using this new feature, you can send an e-mail message from an application very easily.";
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Port = 25;
client.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
client.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
client.Host = "smtp.google.com";
try
{
client.Send(message);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
string t = ex.Message;
}
Got this from here
I must be missing something since I am getting:
Failure sending mail.
What am I doing wrong here?
EDIT:
inner Exeption.
InnerException = {"The remote name could not be resolved:
'smtp.google.com'"}
You can try to use
smtp.gmail.com
instead of
smtp.google.com
Also try to make sure that you are providing the correct credentials along with the correct port. A server parameter info:
Source
So you can try something like this
MailMessage message = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
string fromEmail = "youremailaddress#xyz.com";
string password = "yourPassword";
string toEmail = "recipientemailaddress#abc.com";
message.From = new MailAddress(fromEmail);
message.To.Add(toEmail);
message.Subject = "Using the new SMTP client.";
message.Body = "Using this new feature, you can send an e-mail message from an application very easily.";
message.DeliveryNotificationOptions = DeliveryNotificationOptions.OnFailure;
using(SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", 587))
{
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtpClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromEmail, password);
smtpClient.Send(message.From.ToString(), message.To.ToString(), message.Subject, message.Body);
}
#Ra3IDeN ...hey brother try this...
SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("mail.yourwebsitename.com", 25);
smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("demo#yourwebsitename.com.com", "yourIdPassword");
smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
//code for: From ,CC & To
mail.From = new MailAddress("demo#yourwebsitename.com", "yourwebsite");
mail.To.Add(new MailAddress("demo#yourwebsitename.com"));
mail.CC.Add(new MailAddress("youremailid#gmail.com"));
smtpClient.Send(mail);
If you're trying to send email from a console application (your higher-level problem), I recommend using PostMark. Why:
NuGet - You can get the PostMark NuGet package and send email with a nice API. Convenient and simple.
Not marked as SPAM - You can configure your "server" with verification (including spf and signing). So your email will more likely reach the destination in their inbox rather than their SPAM box.
Free - to a point. I think it's 1000 emails for free then $1 per 1000. So that's pretty good. Compare that to any other vanilla SMTP server for rent. PostMark is cheap
Consistent - From Workstation DEV to server LIVE, the PostMark API is consistently accessible. I cannot stress how good that is. Often a server host will offer SMTP server endpoint but it will only work from inside their network, meaning you have to configure another SMTP server when you're doing DEV work on your workstation (or it simply wont work).
Async Interface - I'm not sure if built-in smtp client in .Net is async...
Tracking - Hey look at that, they have a tracking feature built-in. That's snazzy.
Example code for sending (source):
var message = new PostmarkMessage()
{
To = "recipient#example.com",
From = "sender#example.com",
TrackOpens = true,
Subject = "A complex email",
TextBody = "Plain Text Body",
HtmlBody = "<html><body><img src=\"cid:embed_name.jpg\"/></body></html>",
Tag = "business-message",
Headers = new HeaderCollection{
{"X-CUSTOM-HEADER", "Header content"}
}
};
var imageContent = File.ReadAllBytes("test.jpg");
message.AddAttachment(imageContent, "test.jpg", "image/jpg", "cid:embed_name.jpg");
var client = new PostmarkClient("server token");
var sendResult = await client.SendMessageAsync(message);
MailMessage msg = new MailMessage("YourEmail#gmail.com", "DestinationEmail#something.com");
msg.Subject = message.Subject;
msg.AlternateViews.Add(AlternateView.CreateAlternateViewFromString("Message Content here as HTML", null, MediaTypeNames.Text.Html));
SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com", Convert.ToInt32( 587));
System.Net.NetworkCredential credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("YourEmail#gmail.com", "YourPassword");
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
System.Net.ServicePointManager.ServerCertificateValidationCallback = delegate (object s,
System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate certificate,
System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Chain chain,
System.Net.Security.SslPolicyErrors sslPolicyErrors)
{
return true;
};
smtpClient.Credentials = credentials;
smtpClient.Send(msg);
Good day, I'm a beginner from using ASP.net and SMTP Mailer
Heres my Question, I always encounter this Error when i send email from my local

Please have a look on google support team, what they are saying regarding sending mail from application.
https://support.google.com/mail/answer/78775?hl=en
Also following link can help you.
Gmail Error :The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required
Goto Account of Gmail , then select
Connected apps & sites
Allow less secure apps: ON(if this is off you cannot send mails through apps,or your websites )
I was able to send emails with local smtp but when trying to send with gmail, it isnt working.
ERROR:
"The server rejected the sender address. The server response was: 530 5.7.0
Must issue a STARTTLS command first. pj7sm14546972pbb.96 - gsmtp\r\n"
C#:
public static void SendEmail()
{
MailMessage mailMsg = new MailMessage();
SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
mailMsg.From = "donotreply#admin.com"; //also tried smtpusername here
mailMsg.To = strToAddress;
mailMsg.Subject = strSubject;
mailMsg.Body = strBody;
smtpClient.Port = 587;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
smtpClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(smtpusername, smtppassword);
//smtpusername & smtppassword are valid gmail credentials
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = "smtp.gmail.com";
SmtpMail.Send(mailMsg);
}
If the EnableSsl property is set to true, and the SMTP mail server
does not advertise STARTTLS in the response to the EHLO command, then
a call to the Send or SendAsync methods will throw an SmtpException.

I have been trying for 2 days to get my ASP.NET webforms application to send an e-mail.
I have tried this using both outlook and gmail. I got the smtp information for both from this tutorial:
When I try using port 587 in the example below I get an error saying:
An exception of type 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpException' occurred in System.dll but was not handled in user code
Additional information: The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required.
When I try using port 465 in the example below:
My application just hangs forever and my page never gets back my email function which is in the PageLoad.
A couple of things to note just incase one of these is messing me up:
I am using a standard VS2013 dev environment (running my web app in debug mode using F5)
I am using the same e-mail address for from, to, and gmail login credentials)
My ISP does not block these ports. (comcast cable)
I even went to the google DisplayUnlockCaptcha page to Allow access to my account
protected void SendEmail()
{
string EmailAddress = "myemail#gmail.com";
using (MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage(EmailAddress, EmailAddress))
{
mailMessage.Subject = "This is a test email";
mailMessage.Body = "This is a test email. Please reply if you receive it.";
SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
smtpClient.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
smtpClient.Port = 587;
smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential()
{
UserName = EmailAddress,
Password = "password"
};
smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
}
}
This code should work fine for you
protected void SendEmail()
{
string EmailAddress = "myemail#gmail.com";
MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage(EmailAddress, EmailAddress);
mailMessage.Subject = "This is a test email";
mailMessage.Body = "This is a test email. Please reply if you receive it.";
SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient();
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
smtpClient.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
smtpClient.Port = 587;
smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential()
{
UserName = EmailAddress,
Password = "password"
};
smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
}
You'll need to set the delivery mode otherwise gmail will return an error
EDIT:
Throwing an 'using' around 'MailMessage' might also be a smart thing to do
It turns out that it is because of a GMail security setting.
https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
You have to enable access for less secure apps.
