上面的答案不管用。必须设置DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod。网络，否则将返回“客户端未经过身份验证”错误。此外，暂停总是一个好主意。

修改后的代码:

using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Net;

var fromAddress = new MailAddress("from@gmail.com", "From Name");
var toAddress = new MailAddress("to@yahoo.com", "To Name");
const string fromPassword = "password";
const string subject = "test";
const string body = "Hey now!!";

var smtp = new SmtpClient
{
    Host = "smtp.gmail.com",
    Port = 587,
    EnableSsl = true,
    DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network,
    Credentials = new NetworkCredential(fromAddress.Address, fromPassword),
    Timeout = 20000
};
using (var message = new MailMessage(fromAddress, toAddress)
{
    Subject = subject,
    Body = body
})
{
    smtp.Send(message);
}

这是发送邮件的附件。简单而简短。

using System.Net;
using System.Net.Mail;

public void email_send()
{
    MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
    SmtpClient SmtpServer = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");
    mail.From = new MailAddress("your mail@gmail.com");
    mail.To.Add("to_mail@gmail.com");
    mail.Subject = "Test Mail - 1";
    mail.Body = "mail with attachment";

    System.Net.Mail.Attachment attachment;
    attachment = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment("c:/textfile.txt");
    mail.Attachments.Add(attachment);

    SmtpServer.Port = 587;
    SmtpServer.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("your mail@gmail.com", "your password");
    SmtpServer.EnableSsl = true;

    SmtpServer.Send(mail);

}

编辑2022 从2022年5月30日起，谷歌将不再支持仅使用用户名和密码登录谷歌账户的第三方应用程序或设备。 但是你仍然可以通过你的gmail账户发送电子邮件。

访问https://myaccount.google.com/security，打开两步验证。如有需要，请电话确认。 点击“应用程序密码”，就在“2步验证”勾的下方。 请求邮件应用程序的新密码。

现在只需使用这个密码，而不是原来的一个为您的帐户!

public static void SendMail2Step(string SMTPServer, int SMTP_Port, string From, string Password, string To, string Subject, string Body, string[] FileNames) {            
            var smtpClient = new SmtpClient(SMTPServer, SMTP_Port) {
                DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network,
                UseDefaultCredentials = false,
                EnableSsl = true
            };                
            smtpClient.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(From, Password); //Use the new password, generated from google!
            var message = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(From, "SendMail2Step"), new System.Net.Mail.MailAddress(To, To));
            smtpClient.Send(message);
    }

像这样使用:

SendMail2Step("smtp.gmail.com", 587, "youraccount@gmail.com",
          "yjkjcipfdfkytgqv",//This will be generated by google, copy it here.
          "recipient@barcodes.bg", "test message subject", "Test message body ...", null);

对于其他答案工作“从服务器”首先打开访问gmail帐户不太安全的应用程序。这将在2022年5月30日被弃用

看来最近谷歌改变了安全策略。评分最高的答案不再有效，直到您更改您的帐户设置如下所述:https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/6010255?hl=en-GB 2016年3月，谷歌再次更改设置地点!

下面是一个从web.config发送邮件和获取凭证的方法:

public static string SendEmail(string To, string Subject, string Msg, bool bodyHtml = false, bool test = false, Stream AttachmentStream = null, string AttachmentType = null, string AttachmentFileName = null)
{
    try
    {
        System.Net.Mail.MailMessage newMsg = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage(System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["mailCfg"], To, Subject, Msg);
        newMsg.BodyEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
        newMsg.HeadersEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
        newMsg.SubjectEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;

        System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient smtpClient = new System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient();
        if (AttachmentStream != null && AttachmentType != null && AttachmentFileName != null)
        {
            System.Net.Mail.Attachment attachment = new System.Net.Mail.Attachment(AttachmentStream, AttachmentFileName);
            System.Net.Mime.ContentDisposition disposition = attachment.ContentDisposition;
            disposition.FileName = AttachmentFileName;
            disposition.DispositionType = System.Net.Mime.DispositionTypeNames.Attachment;

            newMsg.Attachments.Add(attachment);
        }
        if (test)
        {
            smtpClient.PickupDirectoryLocation = "C:\\TestEmail";
            smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = System.Net.Mail.SmtpDeliveryMethod.SpecifiedPickupDirectory;
        }
        else
        {
            //smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
        }

        newMsg.IsBodyHtml = bodyHtml;
        smtpClient.Send(newMsg);
        return SENT_OK;
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {

        return "Error: " + ex.Message
             + "<br/><br/>Inner Exception: "
             + ex.InnerException;
    }

}

以及web.config中相应的部分:

<appSettings>
    <add key="mailCfg" value="yourmail@example.com"/>
</appSettings>
<system.net>
  <mailSettings>
    <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="yourmail@example.com">
      <network defaultCredentials="false" host="mail.exapmple.com" userName="yourmail@example.com" password="your_password" port="25"/>
    </smtp>
  </mailSettings>
</system.net>

谷歌已经从我们的谷歌帐户中删除了不太安全的应用程序设置，这意味着我们不能再使用我们实际的谷歌密码从SMTP服务器发送电子邮件。我们需要使用Xoauth2并授权用户，或者在启用了2fa的帐户上创建一个应用程序密码。

一旦创建了应用程序密码，就可以用来代替你的标准gmail密码。

class Program
{
    private const string To = "test@test.com";
    private const string From = "test@test.com";
    
    private const string GoogleAppPassword = "XXXXXXXX";
    
    private const string Subject = "Test email";
    private const string Body = "<h1>Hello</h1>";
    
    
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Hello World!");
        
        var smtpClient = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com")
        {
            Port = 587,
            Credentials = new NetworkCredential(From , GoogleAppPassword),
            EnableSsl = true,
        };
        var mailMessage = new MailMessage
        {
            From = new MailAddress(From),
            Subject = Subject,
            Body = Body,
            IsBodyHtml = true,
        };
        mailMessage.To.Add(To);

        smtpClient.Send(mailMessage);
    }
}

快速修复SMTP用户名和密码不接受错误

这是不再支持，如果你正在尝试这样做现在。
