Sending an E-Mail with Gmail SMTP

Question

What is the port and host? Becuase it throws an host not found exception
URL smtp.gmail.com
Port: 587
Using credentials and enabling Ssl

If I use port 465 the application doesn't throw an Excepcion but Gmail is not receiving.

I don't have the System.web.Mail Library. I use the System.Net.Mail. And the MailMessage Class does not have the Fields Collection Propierties. I'm doing a WindowsApplication. But thanks anyway.
