How to send email in ASP.NET C#

I'm very new to the ASP.NET C# area. I'm planning to send a mail through ASP.NET C# and this is the SMTP address from my ISP:

smtp-proxy.tm.net.my

Below is what I tried to do, but failed.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeFile="Default.aspx.cs" Inherits="SendMail" %>
<html>
<head id="Head1" runat="server"><title>Email Test Page</title></head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
        Message to: <asp:TextBox ID="txtTo" runat="server" /><br>
        Message from: <asp:TextBox ID="txtFrom" runat="server" /><br>
        Subject: <asp:TextBox ID="txtSubject" runat="server" /><br>
        Message Body:<br>
        <asp:TextBox ID="txtBody" runat="server" Height="171px" TextMode="MultiLine"  Width="270px" /><br>
        <asp:Button ID="Btn_SendMail" runat="server" onclick="Btn_SendMail_Click" Text="Send Email" /><br>
        <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text="Label"></asp:Label>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

And below is my code-behind:

using System;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Net.Mail;
public partial class SendMail : System.Web.UI.Page
{
    protected void Btn_SendMail_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        MailMessage mailObj = new MailMessage(
            txtFrom.Text, txtTo.Text, txtSubject.Text, txtBody.Text);
        SmtpClient SMTPServer = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1");
        try
        {
            SMTPServer.Send(mailObj);
        }
        catch (Exception ex)
        {
            Label1.Text = ex.ToString();
        }
    }
}

PS: I'm sorry that I couldn't understand the receiver/sender SMTP concept, and so I am trying to understand the whole concept from here.

Just go through the below code.

SmtpClient smtpClient = new SmtpClient("mail.MyWebsiteDomainName.com", 25);

smtpClient.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("[email protected]", "myIDPassword");
// smtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = true; // uncomment if you don't want to use the network credentials
smtpClient.DeliveryMethod = SmtpDeliveryMethod.Network;
smtpClient.EnableSsl = true;
MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();

//Setting From , To and CC
mail.From = new MailAddress("info@MyWebsiteDomainName", "MyWeb Site");
mail.To.Add(new MailAddress("info@MyWebsiteDomainName"));
mail.CC.Add(new MailAddress("[email protected]"));

smtpClient.Send(mail);
