It's probably true, it can't connect to the server. Have you checked your credentials? — Luke, Apr 21 '17 at 09:06
do you double check your NetworkCredentioal ? do you check that is not blocked by your firewall ? Do you have see all the other similar question for the same error ? — Aristos, Apr 21 '17 at 09:17
and now the error is "The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at" — Azhar Setiawan, Apr 21 '17 at 09:20

This happens when you try login from different time zone or IP Address Computer. sign in to gmail once with your credentials. They will ask for the confirmation, confirm it and log out.

Hopes it help..!!!

For the error: "The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.5.1 Authentication Required. Learn more at", you would have got an Email(Account of the 'emailSender' in the code) of subject: "Review blocked sign-in attempt".

Open that email and click on 'Secure Your Account' where in you will be directed to page where you can turn OFF"Disable access for less secure apps". Doing this should fix your issue.
