Sending email in C#

I am working on a page where I have to send an email in C#. I wish to send an email from an outlook address to a gmail address.

I followed the codes on http://ift.tt/1xzPoX1 and came upon this two exceptions

A first chance exception of type 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpException' occurred in System.dll. A first chance exception of type 'System.Threading.ThreadAbortException' occurred in mscorlib.dll

Here are the codes I implemented. I can't seem to figure what went wrong.

//Send email notification - removed actual email for this question

SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp-mail.outlook.com", 587);
client.EnableSsl = true;

MailAddress from = new MailAddress("myemail@outlook.com", "My name is here");
MailAddress to = new MailAddress("anotherpersonsemail@gmail.com", "Subject here");

MailMessage message = new MailMessage(from, to);
message.Body = "Thank you";
message.Subject = "Successful submission";

NetworkCredential myCreds = new NetworkCredential("myemail@outlook.com",         
"mypassword", "");

client.Credentials = myCreds;
try
{
  client.Send(message);
  Console.Write(ex.Message.ToString());

}

catch (Exception ex)
{
  Console.Write(ex.Message.ToString());
}
