How To Set Port Number On Smtp Connection Manager Send Mail Task
Oct 29, 2007
Hello,
We have an SSIS job that runs once a day and sends emails.
For security reasons, IT switched the send-mail porton the smtp server from 25 to a different number (let's say 1234).
So, I changed the SSIS SMTP Connection Manager's smtpServer string to smptserver:1234
However, this does not seem to be working. I keep getting 'Send Mail Failure' error.
Any ideas how to set the port number for sending emails using SSIS?
I am new to the SSIS package and was trying to figure out how to use SMTP authetication with a 'Send Mail Task' Our company's server requries SMTP authentication for mail. The Send Mail task only allows for Windows authentication.
What can I do to get the SMTP authentication to work for the Send Mail Task? Regards, James Robb
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.
Hello everyone, I'm having an issue with dynamically setting the Send Mail task's to field to decent sized recipient list(approx 15 email addys). The strange thing is that this same package works fine if I'm using a list of say 4 email addys. I have double checked everything I can think of....list is seperated by semicolons, each address looks good....and have ran script tasks to check my variables along the path of the package but so far have not found the reason. The error I get is below:
"The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address"
Also of note, these addresses are being populated from a table, that is then setting the To string of the send mail task via a seperate variable...that variable being populated from a foreach loop. Again, all of this works fine with a smaller recipient list. Any ideas?
The only thing I can think of right now is to run the send mail task within the foreach loop...but then I'll be sending a seperate email for each address and would like to avoid that if possible.
I have attempted to report out errors at the end of an ETL process by alerting supporting DBAs of errors using the SSIS "Send Mail Task". Task completes along with the sequenced packages, but does not mail anything out. No logic at this time for trigger, just success from the previous task triggering the task to send mail. I also get no errors in the output, and I get no output indicating the send mail task fired, but it does go "green". Do I have to enable database mail and have privileges?
Component Configuration:
SMTP Connection Manager - SMTP Server: arsocex02

OK. I give up and need help. Hopefully it's something minor ...
I have a dataflow which returns email addresses to a recordset.
I pass this recordset into a ForEachLoop configuring the enumerator as (Foreach ADO Enumerator). I also map the email address as a variable with index 0.
I then have a Execute SQL task which receives this email address as a varchar variable (parameter 0) which I then use in my SQL command to limit the rows returned. I have commented out the where clause and returned all rows regardless of email address to try to troubleshoot this problem. In either event, I then use a resultset to store the query result of type object and result name 0.
I then pass this resultset into a script variable to start parsing the sql rows returned as type object. ( I assume this is the correct way to do this from other prior posts ...).
The script appears to throw an exception at the following line. I assume it's because I'm either not passing in the values properly or the query doesn't return anything. However, I am certain the query works as it executes just fine at the command prompt.
My intent is to email the query results to each email address with the following type of data by passing the parsed data from the script to a send mail task. Email works fine and sends out messages but the content is empty. I pass the parsed data as string values to the messagesource and define the messagesourcetype as a variable in the mail task.
part number leadtime
x 5
y 9
....
Does anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong?
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.
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.
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.
We have jobs running successfully on one server. The jobs incluce a send mail step as one of the steps. We migrated the DB to a new server. I also migrated the jobs. Now the job is failing. We are getting error with the send mail task. The error says the stored procedure 'master.dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail' could not be found. I am not sure what is the problem. Please advise.

Hello, I have the following problem. I have a (Test-) package containing a task that deletes rows in a table. On Failure I implemented a Send Mail task that informs me about the output. Now the problem: If I run the package in BIDS on my client computer the mail is sent and I get it. The same is true if I run the package on BIDS on the Testserver where the package is stored. Also I get a mail when running the package as SQL Agent Job. But I never get a message when I simply execute the package from the Managament Studio. Then I get the error message: "The task Send Mail Task cannot run on this edition of Integration Services. It requires a higher level edition. " This is the same whether the package is stored in msdb or in the Filesystem. Does anyone know why this is the case or how I can get rid of this error?
