Unable to Send Mail using Asp.net PasswordRecovery tool.

Question

I am trying to send a mail message to a gmail address. When I click submit after filling the "Answer" in the paswwordRecovery tool, after a few seconds, it is showing a error message "A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 74.125.127.109:587"... Some please help... thank you.

Have you add SMTP information in your web.config?

<system.net>
    <mailSettings>
        <smtp deliveryMethod="Network" from="[email protected]">
            <network defaultCredentials="true" host="localhost" port="25" userName="kaushal" password="testPassword"/>
        </smtp>
    </mailSettings>
</system.net>
