Also remove this line smtp.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;

Gmail has its own smtp server, you cannot host in godaddy or any other server. If you want to use gmail, make sure to allow lessSecureApp to true in the below link https://myaccount.google.com/security. However they offer to configure it with outlook

Thanks for reply...

I am using gmail account to send mail and using Godaddy shared hosting to host website and contact them to solve this issue but they even didnot know what this issue is and how to solve this issue

Dear Rahul,

You can contact and share your error details with your shared hosting provider. They might help and guide you as it is giving permission issue. Once they will assign the proper right to your user group you will be able to send the mail.

Thanks

You can ask your hosting provider to get the peoper port no and ssl (if available). If you haven't purchased the Ssl certificate then set EnableSsl to false.
