Unable to send email using SmtpClient

[zuhrs]

I have written the following code for sending Email. I have used my Gmail username and password for Network credentials.

string strEmailID ; //It is some valid Email ID.

MailMessage mail = new MailMessage("Admin@Accounts.com", strEmailID);
mail.Subject = "New Reimbursement added";
mail.Body = "Test";

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Port = 587;
client.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
client.EnableSsl = true;
client.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(username, password);
client.Send(mail);

But this doesn't work for all systems. In some systems, it is successfully sending mail, but in some systems, it is throwing an exception.

Can any one help me regarding this.

What kind of exception is thrown and what is the message and innerexception of the exception?
