I have domain name "softgenindia.com"
I also have email account purchased from 'mail4india' i.e. 'ABC@softgenindia.com'.
I am sending mail from my asp.net application.
for this i am using following lines in my web.config as i wasusing my gmail account

XML

<system.net>
   <mailSettings>
     <smtp from="abc@gmail.com" deliveryMethod="Network">
       <network host="smtp.gmail.com" port="587" userName="abc@gmail.com" password="123245"/>
     </smtp>
   </mailSettings>
 </system.net>

But when I am giving the username=sales@softgenindia.com
and password="abc", It is not sending mail and giving error of authentication.

What will be the settings for mail4india email account?

And you changed a server adress to? If not it would authentication error since at gmail there is not such account.

you have to change the POP and SMTP mail server also of your mail4india

XML

<system.net>
   <mailSettings>
     <smtp from="POP" deliveryMethod="Network">
       <network host="SMTP" port="587" userName="abc@gmail.com" password="123245"/>
     </smtp>
   </mailSettings>
 </system.net>
