How to send email directly to a user using C # in Windows 10 applications?

Question

I have the following code

 EmailMessage email = new EmailMessage();
 email.To.Add(new EmailRecipient("[e-mail]"));
 email.Subject = "Msg Subject ";
 email.Body = "My Msg";
 await EmailManager.ShowComposeNewEmailAsync(email);

---

showComposeNewEmailAsync () starts the email application with the message displayed above, but I want to send an email directly to the user without starting the email application. How can i do this?

Since I am new to coding, please explain to me in more detail.

{
     EmailMessage emailMessage = new EmailMessage();

     emailMessage.To.Add(new EmailRecipient("[e-mail]"));
     emailMessage.CC.Add(new EmailRecipient("[e-mail]"));
     emailMessage.Bcc.Add(new EmailRecipient("[e-mail]"));
     emailMessage.Subject = "Subject line of your message";
     emailMessage.Body = "This is an email sent from a UWP app!";

     await client.SendMailAsync(emailMessage);
}
