The code below works for me... I have heard anecdotally that UseDefaulCredentials=false must precees the Credentials line

C#

var smtp = new SmtpClient
{
    Host = "smtp.gmail.com",
    Port = 587,
    EnableSsl = true,
    DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network,
    UseDefaultCredentials = false,
    Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromAddress.Address, fromPassword),
    Timeout=10000
};
using (var message = new MailMessage(fromAddress, toAddress)
{
    Subject = subject,
    Body = body
})
{
    try
    {
        smtp.Send(message);
     }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("Email request failed: " + e.Message);
    }
}

try this

MailAddress mailfrom = new MailAddress ( "frommail@gmail.com" );
MailAddress mailto = new MailAddress ( "tomail@gmail.com" );
MailMessage newmsg = new MailMessage ( mailfrom, mailto );
newmsg.Subject = "Subject of Email";
newmsg.Body = "Body(message) of email";
////For File Attachment, more file can also be attached
Attachment att = new Attachment ( "G:\\code.txt" );
newmsg.Attachments.Add ( att );
SmtpClient smtps = new SmtpClient ( "smtp.gmail.com", 587 );
smtps.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
smtps.Credentials = new NetworkCredential ( "urmail@gmail.com", "urpwd" );
smtps.EnableSsl = true;
smtps.Send ( newmsg );
