→ Use SMTP secured port: 465
→ Force your script to make SMTP authentication:
mail.UseDefaultCredentials = false;
mail.Credentials = basicCredential;

Points to taken into consideration :
1) Access for less secure apps is "turned On" https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
2) Enable login from other timezone/IP for your google account https://g.co/allowaccess
