Send Email in Asp.Net C# Using SMTP

In this article I’ve implemented the code to Send Email in Asp.Net C# Using SMTP.
Many times when you implement a contact form page in Asp.Net website you need to send that data to email whenever client query through contact page.
Unlike PHP in ASP.Net C# you can’t send emails just by calling mail method, in C# you have to provide proper SMTP and credentials to send email.
You can use below code to Send Email in Asp.Net C# Using SMTP.

Send Email in Asp.Net C# Using SMTP

         try
            {
                //Create Object of MailMessage Class
                MailMessage m = new MailMessage();
                //Create Object of SmtpClient Class
                SmtpClient sc = new SmtpClient();
                //Add Email Address to Which You want to send email
                m.To.Add("abc@xyz.com");
                //Add Email Address of Sender With Display Name
                m.From = new MailAddress("demo@demo.com", "Demo Sender");     
                //Subject
                m.Subject = "Demo Mail";
                //Include this if you want html in email body
                m.IsBodyHtml = true;
                //Add Reply To, If you want to change the default reply list
                m.ReplyToList.Add("demo@other.com");
                //Body of Mail
                m.Body = "Demo Text";
                //Credential of your email
                sc.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("email@email.com", "password");
                //SMTP Host of your email, If you don't know this ask to your hosting provider
                sc.Host = "smtp.domain.com";
                //Port of SMTP Server
                sc.Port = 587;
                //Enable SSL if ypur host support SSL
                sc.EnableSsl = true;
                //Call the send method
                sc.Send(m);
                //Dispose the object
                m.Dispose();
                sc.Dispose();                
            }
            catch(Exception ex)
            {
                //log exception             
            }

                SmtpClient sc = new SmtpClient();               
                m.To.Add("abc@xyz.com");               
                m.From = new MailAddress("your-email@gmail.com", "Your Name");                    
                m.Subject = "Demo Mail";               
                m.IsBodyHtml = true;               
                m.ReplyToList.Add("your-other-email@gmail.com");                
                m.Body = "Demo Text";                
                sc.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("your-email@gmail.com", "your gmail password");               
                sc.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";                
                sc.Port = 587;                
                sc.EnableSsl = true;                
                sc.Send(m);                
                m.Dispose();
                sc.Dispose();                
            }
            catch(Exception ex)
            {
                //log exception             
            }
