i have a program that sends a string to my gmail, so far it works without issue on my pc, however when i had my friend run it on his pc it showed this error.

heres the code thats used to send

String^ regkey = gcnew String(readme.c_str()); // convert readme to system::string named regkey
		MailMessage^ mail = gcnew MailMessage("*****@gmail.com", "*****@gmail.com", "MXS from: " + username, "key: " + *****);

		SmtpClient^ client = gcnew SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");
		client->Port = 587;
		client->Credentials = gcnew System::Net::NetworkCredential("*****188", "*****");
		client->EnableSsl = true;
		client->Send(mail);
		Console::WriteLine("Mail sent");

Your

NetworkCredential("*****188", "*****")

username should have a gmail address.

Your

NetworkCredential("*****188", "*****")

username should have a gmail address.

gotcha. i see why that would cause the issue, im an idiot. just changed that, testing now when i find a friend thats online

Your

NetworkCredential("*****188", "*****")

username should have a gmail address.

just had him try it, it threw this error which is different, failed sending mail, he had to pause norton to try it because it blocked

I can't tell if you're instantiating the SmtpClient properly.

I found this on MSDN:

 // Command line argument must the the SMTP host.
        SmtpClient^ client = gcnew SmtpClient(args[1]);
        // Specify the e-mail sender.
        // Create a mailing address that includes a UTF8 
        // character in the display name.
        MailAddress^ from = gcnew MailAddress("emailaddress",
            "Jane " + (wchar_t)0xD8 + " Clayton",
            System::Text::Encoding::UTF8);
        // Set destinations for the e-mail message.
        MailAddress^ to = gcnew MailAddress("emailaddress");
        // Specify the message content.
        MailMessage^ message = gcnew MailMessage(from, to);
        message->Body = "This is a test e-mail message sent" +
            " by an application. ";
        // Include some non-ASCII characters in body and 
        // subject.
        String^ someArrows = gcnew String(gcnew array<wchar_t>{L'\u2190', 
            L'\u2191', L'\u2192', L'\u2193'});
        message->Body += Environment::NewLine + someArrows;
        message->BodyEncoding = System::Text::Encoding::UTF8;
        message->Subject = "test message 1" + someArrows;
        message->SubjectEncoding = System::Text::Encoding::UTF8;
        // Set the method that is called back when the send
        // operation ends.
        client->SendCompleted += gcnew
            SendCompletedEventHandler(SendCompletedCallback);
        // The userState can be any object that allows your 
        // callback method to identify this send operation.
        // For this example, the userToken is a string constant.
        String^ userState = "test message1";
        client->SendAsync(message, userState);

Try to declare every property of the SmtpClient, and not just the port, credentials, and host.
The SmtpClient in general gets gross real quick.

ill have to give that a try tomorow and see, i want to look at my friends pc again, i think norton added a rule to his firewall to block the application since norton wasnt disabled upon starting the program and posted a message saying application blocked from internet accesss
