html - Trying to configure Web site form on asp.net

Question

I am writing a web page with asp.net and am having problems with a web form. My intent is to have the form send an email via gmail.com. I ran into a couple of situations where I received warnings that the sign in attempts were blocked. I think I have configured security so that it only requires log in ID and password, but I can't get it to take. Here is my asp.c code:

    protected void ButtonSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        try
        { 
            // Form the mail message
            MailMessage mailMessage = new MailMessage();
            // set the from address
            mailMessage.From = new MailAddress(TextBoxEMail.Text, TextBoxName.Text + " - " + TextBoxCallsign.Text);
            // set the to address
            mailMessage.To.Add("[email protected]");
            // set the subject
            mailMessage.Subject = "Web site submission";
            // set the message body
            mailMessage.Body =  TextBoxComment.Text;
            mailMessage.IsBodyHtml = true;

            // create the smtpclient
            SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
            // set the username and password
            smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "poindexter");
            smtp.Port = 465;  //25; //465;  //587;
            smtp.EnableSsl = true;
            smtp.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
            smtp.Host= "smtp.gmail.com";
            smtp.Send(mailMessage);

            // write to Label to inform user of success.
            LabelSuccess.Text = "Email Sent";
        }// try
        catch (Exception ex)
        {   // write error code to label for debug purposes
            LabelSuccess.Text = ex.ToString();
        }// catch
    }// ButtonSubmit_Click

I have been playing around with host configuration (smtp.host) and smtp port, and have had no success. Any ideas?
