send email using Javascript and MVC

I follow an article from code project but when i submit the form for email it says 404 bad request

below is my code I have method and model class in home controller as shown below .

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult SendNewMessage()
{
try
{
Response.StatusCode = 200;
//getting useful configuration
string smtpAddress = ConfigurationSMTP.smtpAdress;
//it can be a "smtp.office365.com" or whatever,
//it depends on smtp server of your sender email.
int portNumber = ConfigurationSMTP.portNumber; //Smtp port
bool enableSSL = ConfigurationSMTP.enableSSL; //SSL enable
string emailTo = Request.Params["to"];
string subject = Request.Params["subject"];
StringBuilder body = new StringBuilder();
//building the body of our email
body.Append(" ");
body.Append("Hi,

");
body.Append(Request.Params["message"]);
body.Append("

");

//Mail signature

body.Append(string.Format("{0} - {1} {2}
", MessageModel.adress, MessageModel.zip, MessageModel.city));

body.Append(string.Format("Mail: {0}
", ConfigurationSMTP.from));

body.Append(string.Format("Tel: {0}
", MessageModel.phone));

body.Append(string.Format("{0}

", MessageModel.link));

body.Append(string.Format("{0}
", MessageModel.details));

body.Append( "");

using (MailMessage mail = new MailMessage())

{

mail.From = new MailAddress(ConfigurationSMTP.from);

//destination adress

mail.To.Add(emailTo);

mail.Subject = subject;

mail.Body = body.ToString();

//set to true, to specify that we are sending html text.

mail.IsBodyHtml = true;

// Can set to false, if you are sending pure text.

string localFileName = "~/Content/TestAttachement.txt";

//to send a file in attachment.

mail.Attachments.Add(new Attachment(Server.MapPath(localFileName), "application/pdf"));

//Specify the smtp Server and port number to create a new instance of SmtpClient.

using (SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient(smtpAddress, portNumber))

{

//passing the credentials for authentification

smtp.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ConfigurationSMTP.from, ConfigurationSMTP.password);

//Authentification required

smtp.EnableSsl = enableSSL;

//sending email.

smtp.Send(mail);

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

//Error response

Response.StatusCode = 400;

}

return null;

}

Model Class:

public class ConfigurationSMTP
{
//SMTP parameters
public static string smtpAdress = "smtp.gmail.com";
public static int portNumber = 587;
public static bool enableSSL = true;
//need it for the secured connection
public static string from = "[email protected]";
public static string password = "Pakistan_123";
}
public class MessageModel
{
public static string adress = "full adress of sender";
public static string link = "link for your website";
public static string zip = "90";
public static string city = "paris";
public static string phone = "(+33) 06 xxxxxxxx";
public static string details = "detail detail detail detail detail";
}

Index View:

@{
ViewBag.Title = "Index";
}
"text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#idFormContact").on("submit", function (e) {
e.preventDefault();
//call external service
var url = "/Home/SendNewMessage";
var formdata = (window.FormData) ? new FormData(this) : null;
var fdata = (formdata !== null) ? formdata : $form.serialize();
$("#idSubmitMvt").attr("disabled", true);
$("#idNotifSuccess").hide();
$("#idNotifError").hide();
//get authorization keys.

Look like the code has most of the stuff. Couple of things,
I hope your password is really not Pakistan_123, if yes, you need to change it
Try sent a simple email out, without attachment, maybe a line to narrow down the issues.
I don't think this is an issue, but fyi, SmtpClient is now obsolete (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.net.mail.smtpclient?view=netframework-4.8)
