To make your email sending functionality more flexible and user-friendly, you can implement a way to allow users to send emails using their own email credentials. Here’s how you can achieve this:

1. Use a dropdown list to let users select their email provider.
2. Capture the user’s email, password, and provider-specific settings (like host and port) from the form inputs.
3. Use these inputs to configure the SmtpClient.

Here's a sample implementation:

protected void btnSend_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Capture user inputs
    string fromEmail = txtEmail.Text;
    string password = txtPassword.Text;
    string toEmail = txtToEmail.Text;
    string subject = txtSubject.Text;
    string body = txtBody.Text;
    string selectedProvider = ddlEmailProvider.SelectedValue;

    // Determine SMTP settings based on selected provider
    string smtpHost = "";
    int smtpPort = 0;
    bool enableSsl = true;

    switch (selectedProvider)
    {
        case "Gmail":
            smtpHost = "smtp.gmail.com";
            smtpPort = 587;
            break;
        case "Outlook":
            smtpHost = "smtp-mail.outlook.com";
            smtpPort = 587;
            break;
        case "SendGrid":
            smtpHost = "smtp.sendgrid.net";
            smtpPort = 587;
            break;
        // Add more providers as needed
        default:
            lblResult.Text = "Please select a valid email provider.";
            return;
    }

    // Create the mail message
    MailMessage message = new MailMessage(fromEmail, toEmail, subject, body);
    message.IsBodyHtml = true;

    // Configure the SMTP client
    SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient
    {
        Host = smtpHost,
        Port = smtpPort,
        EnableSsl = enableSsl,
        DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network,
        UseDefaultCredentials = false,
        Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromEmail, password)
    };

    try
    {
        client.Send(message);
        lblResult.Text = "Your mail has been sent successfully!";
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        lblResult.Text = "Error sending email: " + ex.Message;
    }
    finally
    {
        btnSend.Enabled = true;
        clearFields();
    }
}

Note:

1. Ensure that ddlEmailProvider is a dropdown list containing the supported email providers (e.g., Gmail, Outlook, SendGrid).
2. Add validation to ensure that users provide all necessary inputs.
3. Be aware that storing and handling user passwords in plain text is a security risk. Consider using OAuth2 for authentication with providers like Gmail, Outlook, etc., instead of asking users for their email passwords.
