1. Explain your problem in more detail, exactly what are you having trouble with.
2. It's not urgent, except to you.

If it was that urgent, why did you not try google?
Google search "send email c#"[^]

As the error suggests, make sure your outlook server is setup and running.

It can be because of various reasons. You need to look at them one by one.
Is the port open? Firewall permissions in place?
Further make sure you have configured SMTP configuration in Web.Config:

<system.net>
   <mailSettings>
     <smtp from="abc@somedomain.com">
       <network host="somesmtpserver" port="25" userName="name" password="pass" defaultCredentials="true" />
     </smtp>
   </mailSettings>
</system.net>

If needed, have a look at this Microsoft Video tutorial:

If needed, there are lots of article on this very site on how to send emails
