    }
    protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

        {
            //Create the msg object to be sent
            MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
            //Add your email address to the recipients
            msg.To.Add("receiver@gmail.com");

            MailAddress address = new MailAddress("sender@gmail.com");
            msg.From = address;
            //Append their name in the beginning of the subject

C#

using (MailMessage mm = new MailMessage(fromEmail, toEmail))
{
        mm.Subject = txtSubject.Text;
        mm.Body = txtBody.Text;
        mm.IsBodyHtml = false;
        SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
        smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
        smtp.EnableSsl = true;
        NetworkCredential NetworkCred = new NetworkCredential(fromEmail, password);
        smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
        smtp.Credentials = NetworkCred;
        smtp.Port = 587;
        smtp.Send(mm);
}

Solution 3

Because you are using POP3, so you also need to mention that in your code as well.
