Error sending mail through Yahoo?

Error sending email from yahoo. I have tried ports 25,995,465,587! I am out of options now. I would highly appreciate if someone could tell me what the problem is? isn't smtp available on yahoo now!!! i read somewhere that it is a paid service or something? is that correct and is it because of that, that i am not able to get through the server! I can successfully send emails from my gmail account where the To and From are same and i also sent a mail from gmail to Yahoo but the reverse isnt working!

 MailMessage mail = new MailMessage();
 mail.From = new MailAddress(something@yahoo.co.in);
 //***Enter recievers Email here (TVC)
 mail.To.Add(new MailAddress("something@gmail.com"));
 mail.Subject = "This is some text";
 mail.Body = "This is the body";
 SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("plus.smtp.mail.yahoo.com",995);
 client.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("somehting@yahoo.co.in", "pass");
 client.EnableSsl = true;
 client.Send(mail);
 MessageBox.Show("Mail Sent Successfully!", "Success", MessageBoxButtons.OK);

I get the following exception

System.Net.Mail.SmtpException was unhandled
Message=Failure sending mail.

And after using the try catch block this is what i get

I don't think you can do that unless you are a Yahoo! Plus account holder.

Read this: http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/classic/mailplus/pop/pop-08.html

This is the link: Time out Error in send mail
( OP never believed it any way and so it was not marked as answer. Please note that the other answer is also unmarked which means OP did not get a solution )

P.S: I have just checked sending a mail through "smtp.yahoo.com" port 465. Its also being forcibly closed. So as of now, its also not working.

Hope this helps.

A good place to start would be to try to do it manually. Just connect to that server on port 25 using telnet go through the commands as described on this page.

That way you can see how far you get before it breaks.

If you wrap the code in a try / catch block and debug the exception you'll get a more meaningful message telling you what the problem is.
