Hello
I have got a script which gives the mail to the dba mail box when database backup fails.
In the script I want to make a change so that I get the particular database name , on what ever database i implement.
Can you tell me some suggestions.
The script I am using is :
use master
go
alter PROCEDURE dbo.SendMail
@to VARCHAR(255),
@subject VARCHAR(255),
@message VARCHAR(8000)
AS
BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON;
DECLARE
@rv INT,
@from VARCHAR(64),
@server VARCHAR(255);
SELECT
@from = 'testsql2000@is.depaul.edu',
@server = 'smtp.depaul.edu';
select @message = @message + char(13) + Char(13) + @@servername + '-'+ db_name()+ '-' + 'Backup Status Failed' + Char(13)
EXEC @rv = dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
@to = @to,
@from = @from,
@message = @message,
@subject = @subject,
@server = @server;
END
GO
--- After the above script is run the following should be given in the 2nd step when
--- the backup jobs are scheduled ------
exec master.dbo.sendmail
@to = 'dvaddi@depaul.edu',
@subject =' Test sqlserver 2000',
@message = '' ;

Hi every body
I want to send a simple mail using DATABASE MAIL feature in SQL SERVER 2005.
I've defined a public profile.
I've enabled Database Mail stored procedures through the Surface Area Configuration .
but I can't send a mail with sp_send_dbmail stored procedure in 'msdb' database .
when I execute sp_send_dbmail in the Managment Studio the message is
"Mail queued" but the mail is not sent.
Could it be related to Service Broker?Because the Surface Area Configuration indicates:'this inctance does not have a Service Broker endpoint'.If so, how should I make an endpoint?
here is the log file after executing sp_send_dbmail:
1) "DatabaseMail process is started"
2) "The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 2 (2007-03-08T00:49:29). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it)."
The DatabaseMail90.exe is triggred ,so the mail is transfered to the mail queue but DatabaseMail90.exe couldn't give the mail to SMTP server.The promlem is what should I do to make DatabaseMail90.exe able to connect to the server?
please help me.

What step am I missing?
I am using nt4.0 sp5 with sql7.0 sp3 and exchange client.
Does anyone know how to keep xp_sendamil form putting a copy of the mail message in the sent mail folder or an automated process for deleting all mail in the sent folder? As it stands now I must manually delete all messages from the sent mail folder on a daily basis.
Thanks,

Dear all,
I have switched off the firewall settings on my system and as suggested im entering the minimal information and data to send the mail.
but still the Mail Task is failing..
plz suggest.
Hi Everyone,
Hopefully someone out there will have an idea as this is driving me nuts.
I've setup a task to email on success/failure and keep receiving the following message when executed:
Progress: The SendMail task is initiated. - 0 percent complete
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.".
Progress: The SendMail task is completed. - 100 percent complete
Task Send Mail Task failed
When I configure Outlook Express on the same machine with the same settings it works.
On the SMTP Connection Manager I have left the default name, tested with both an IP address and Server Name, and no authentication or SSL.
On the Send Mail Task, it uses the above connection. The To: , From: , Subject fields are populated. Message SourceType is DirectInput, MessageSource is Test, Priority is Normal and no attachments or expressions etc.
Nothing useful is logged in the Event Viewer even with full logging turned on.
Any suggestions appreciated,
Thanks.
Hello,
The Database Mail feature is already enabled on the server, also I have a mail account on the other server.
The problem I faced is that I need to send mail from my SQL Server using a created email account on the other server. How should I configure my email to do that ?
Should I use a sysmail_add_account procedure to enable account, also set profile and profile account ? Does this way creates server mail account that is binded with other email account?
The mail should be sent from my SQL Server.
Thank You.
I keep getting a generic "Error Sending Mail" error. For testing purposes I am just trying to send using my own email account. What goes in the SMTP Server box in the connection manager? I have tried:
A - the exchange server address (SOMETHING.us.company.com)
B - The SMTP properties I see when I look at the properties of my email address: (my.name@abcd.efgh.company.com)
C - Just the end portion of the SMTP properties: (abcd.efgh.company.com)
D - My email address (my.name@company.com)
I don't know what to enter, or what is giving me such a generic error message.
I know you can specify additional recipients in the To column by sepperating them with a semicolon. But whats the easiest way to send to several users, when the email address must be retrieved from a table with a query like this:
select email from problem_subscribers
where project = 'project1'
and statusmail = 'OnError'
So when the eventhandler gets an OnError i want the mail task to be sent to each problemsubscriber.
i have to create a scheduled task that does the following:
a) creates an Excel Spreadsheet from a SQL Query
b) sends the spreadsheet to a user
i then need to schedule this task so that it runs every day and creates a NEW spreadsheet (doesnt matter it the name is the same as long as it overwrite what is already there)
HELP me PLEASE i dont like this SQL Game anymore !!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI had a very recent problem where an excess number of mail records were queued. I ran sysmail_delete_mailitems_sp and deleted them from the InternalMailQueue, but it looks like they still exist in the ExternalMailQueue as I keep getting messages in the log similar to "Mail Id 2277459 has been deleted from sysmail_mailitems table. This mail will not be sent". The MailItem_Id keeps incrementing so it looks like it's working its way through. The problem is we can't use it to sent current mail until it gets through about another 3 million records.
If there is some way to delete those records from the External Mail Queue or fast-forward the system to the current records that would be very helpful. Any ideas?

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to configure SQL MAIL and SQL SERVER AGENT MAIL feature of SQL SERVER 2000 with Lotus Domino server (Not Microsoft Exchange). Every thing goes fine and it works also. Problem starts when I try to restart SQL Agent Service. It hangs and the status of service remain 'starting'...
Also the size of the sqlagent service process goes upto 12MB. I don't understand why? Can any one help me in solving this problem.
I am using Windows 2000 Advanced Server and SQL Server 2000 with SP3. Domino client is R5.0.5 and Outlook 2000.
Dear MSSQL Collegues;
I set up SQL mail to send mail using MS Mail Server off of a separate server. The mail works and the server does mail out
with the difference that I must physically click on the "check mail" for MS Messenger to send the mail out to the mail server.
I thought about installing MS Exchange (The one I have running on NT workstation) but I can not find the installation kit
for Exchange anywhere. I tried Microsoft but I can not find it. Is there a trick to installing Exchange out of the cd rom for
NT 4.0? Or is there a setting in Messenger that I have to set for it to send mail by itself?
I need help Please.
Thank you for your help

I have a valid profile that tests fine in sql agent and via sqlmail test buttons.2. I have logged in to the box under that new domain account toinstall outlook and configure all the remaining options.3. I have set both the mssqlserver service and the sqlserveragentservice to run under the domain account that coincides with our pop3email server, and restarted both of them.4. I have installed outlook 2002, and I can send and receive emailsjust fine from our sql server.5. As soon as I try to test an email from within a job, the testfails.All I wanted to do was just be notified if a job fails. The amount oftime lost on what should have been a 30 minute project isunbelievable!!!If anyone has some suggestions, other than the obvious, please let meknow.Thanks,Dave

I am trying to use database mail to send out a list of data. I am using a number of queries to build a string and each query needs to have its results displayed on a new line when the email is viewed using Outlook.
I am having trouble adding a line break into the string. Any pointers would be great.

SELECT * FROM msdb.dbo.sysmail_event_log
And I get the fowwloing error:-

Dave Dunckley says there is a law for the rich and a law for the poor and a law for
Dirty Davey.
I have an application which allows communication through an internal blog. We have to monitor all communications for compliance but I'm unable to find a solution to my problem and hope someone can help.
The application allows IM/Email/Blog entries to authenticated members. We can take these communications and send them to our exchange server. However the FROM address is always the profile owner setup in SQL.
Question:
I want the FROM address to list the person starting the conversation and not setup individual profiles for each person using the application. We already have the ability to capture the communication through the application and send it to exchange but the FROM address doesn't reflect the person initiating the conversations.
Is this possible?
Thank you, MP

View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm keen to use database Mail in SQL 2005. It seems to work well and save's me having to implement a queue, audit logging for sent/errored etc, as SQL2005 can take care of all of that for me.
heres the but..
Is there any way to specify the "From" email address in sp_send_dbmail I know you specify it as part of email account & profile but I want to override that.
I just wanted to be able to keep an audit of all the emails that where sent from an asp.net website and thought i could get that functionality "out of the box" with SQL 2005 and DB Mail, but with out being able to set the from: address its not going to work
Any one have a sugesstion?
Thanks
