Do you get an error message? If you do, what is it and in which part of the code?

Don't send email via gmail. Ask your network admin which smtp server you can use.

You need to provide some more information; we cannot guess what is happening.

Does your domain server configured to send email using SMTP (on IIS) and if yes are you using localhost (127.0.0.1) or any specific IP address?

Based on the description that the program works id not executed from inside your domain, it sounds like you have a firewall preventing the communication. Check that Windows firewall and possible other firewalls let through the communication using port 587.
