I'm trying to write code to send a forgotten password via email, so when the user clicks on the "Forget Password" button it should be to send the password to their email ... but it give this error

Source Error:
Line 50: smtp.Send(ms);
The source code here:
protected void Buttonpsw_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
string mainconn = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["dbconnection"].ConnectionString;
SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(mainconn);
string sqlquery = "select Email,Password1 from [dbo].[Users1] where Email =@Email";
SqlCommand sqlcommand = new SqlCommand(sqlquery, con);
sqlcommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@Email",Textemail.Text);
con.Open();
SqlDataReader sdr = sqlcommand.ExecuteReader();
if (sdr.Read())
{
string username = sdr["Email"].ToString();
string Password = sdr["Password1"].ToString();
MailMessage ms = new MailMessage("roqaia.alrfou@gmail.com",Textemail.Text);
ms.Subject = "Your password!";
ms.Body = string.Format("Hello : <h1>{0}</h1> is your Email ID <br/> Your Password is <h1>{1}</h1>",username,Password);
ms.IsBodyHtml = true;
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient();
smtp.Host = "smtp.gmail.com";
smtp.EnableSsl = true;
NetworkCredential nc = new NetworkCredential();
nc.UserName = "roqaia.alrfou@gmail.com";
nc.Password = "133";
smtp.UseDefaultCredentials = true;
smtp.Credentials = nc;
smtp.Port = 587;
smtp.Send(ms);
Labelmsg.Text = "Your Password has been sent to" + Textemail.Text;
Labelmsg.ForeColor = Color.Green;
}
else
{
Labelmsg.Text = Textemail.Text+" This Email ID isn't Exist! Please sign up";
Labelmsg.ForeColor = Color.Red;
}
And the connectionstring in web config has this code: (Tracking_System is my database name)
<connectionStrings>
<add name="dbconnection"
connectionString="server= USER-PC\SQL;Data
Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=Tracking_System;
Integrated Security=True;Pooling=False
; Trusted_Connection=True;"
providerName="System.data.sqlclient" />
</connectionStrings>
I tried to ping smtp on command prompt it give this:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>ping smtp.gmail.com
