socket, smtp and web exceptions

I've been getting an error sending e-mail messages from my application. I checked with my hosting company and got the correct mail server setting but I'm still getting error messages. Any suggestions? Stack trace and code below.

    email.From = new MailAddress(Settings.LostPasswordEmailFrom);
    email.Subject = Settings.LostPasswordSubject;
    //email.Subject = "your new password";
    email.Body = EmailTemplateService.HtmlMessageBody(EmailTemplates.MembershipPasswordRecovery, new { Body = Settings.LostPasswordText, BeginRequired = "", EndRequired = "", UserName = user.Name, GUID = user.ChangePasswordID.ToString() });
    //email.Body = "your new password is: password";
    SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();

Are you certain that defaultCredentials is correct? I suspect that's going to send your Windows login credentials, which probably isn't what your ISP needs. I think you need to set the Credentials property on your SmtpClient instance. Something like:

// set your SMTP server login credentials
System.Net.NetworkCredential credentials = 
    new System.Net.NetworkCredential("username", "password");
client.Credentials = credentials;
