I am playing around with SQL Mail on my home network. I have SQL Server loaded on my server (Windows 2000 Advanced Server) and I have two XP Professional machines. I have the Outlook client installed on my XP machines. I do not have an Exchange Server. Can I configure SQL mail without an Exchange Server? If I can, How do I do it. I appreciate the feedback.
I really need details because I have been tying everything.

Microsoft SQL - DMO(ODBC SQLState: 42000)
Error 18025:xp_test_mapi_profile: failed with mail error 0x80004005
How to check , whether sql mail is configured or not using TSQL in sql server 2000?
------------------------
I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes
I'm trying to set up Sql Mail using Outlook 2000 and the only way I can get a message sent is to have the Outlook client open at the time I start Sql Mail. Sql Mail will start regardless of the profile chosen even if it is blank, but if the Outlook client was not running at the time I started Sql Mail then while executing xp_sendmail I get "Server: Msg 17914, Level 18, State 1, Line 0 Unknown recipient: Parameter '@recipients', recipient 'jcorriveau@homeruns.com'"
Regardless of the Outlook client status or profile setup when performing a MAPI profile test, <SQL MAIL><Properties><Test>, I receive "SQL-DMO(ODBC SQLState: 42000) Error 22030: A MAPI error(error number 273) occurred.:Unable to get the default MAPI Message Store due to MAPI error 273:The information store could not be opened."
I've setup Sql Mail and Outlook 97/98 clients in the past and have not had to have the client open when starting Sql Mail. I've read most of the technet and knowledge base articles and the only ref I can find to this problem is a note in Q248431 "note that outlook 2000 or another configured MAPI client must be started before xp_startmail is executed." Was this the case in Outlook 97/98?
The Exchange server is in another domain. I think it's version 5.5. I'm using my domain account and profile to setup Sql Mail. I can send and receive mail fine using Outlook 2000. There is a Password dialog box that appears when starting the Outlook client prompting for User Name, Domain Name, and Password. I have not been able to create a profile that gets around this dialog box. Is this an Exchange server setting? If so, is it a server wide setting or can it be disabled per mail account?
Any help with this will be appreciated. Thanks, Jim
Having problems setting up mail under SQL Server 2000. Here is scenario:
1. computer logged in under DOMAINCoolUser (member of Administrators group)
2. SQL Server and SQL Agent Service started under DOMAINCoolUser
3. Mail profile created called CoolUser and messages delivered to Mailbox - CoolUser
4. Successfully sending and receiving messages from Exchange Client
5. net use mailserverIPC$ is returning success
Problem A. I don't see the profile in the dropdown box
Problem B. If I specify the profile manually and test I get the following errro: Error 18025: xp_test_mapi_profile: failed with error 0x80040106
Can anybody help?
I can't find the start option and the check box which says auto start when sql agent starts in 2000.
In sql 7.0 it was pretty simple to configure the mail.
First configure the MAPI, then restore the same in sql agent test it then go to suport service then right click on sql mail and select the profile and click start button there before this test the profile i know we had options such as auto start sqlmail when sql agent starts as well as start and stop in support service..
My problem is i don't see either of these information nor can i find the same..i tried everywhere but they seem to be lost some where..Can some let me know what exactly is the process to start and stop sqlmail in 2000.
I appreciate your help.
Thanx,

I have an SQL 2000 default instance.
On windows server 2003 sp1 machine that is joined to a domain.
This windows is not the domain controller.
There is a domain account domainuser.
This domain account is a member of the Administrators group locally in the windows.
Also this domain account is a member of SysAdmin fixed server role of the SQL Server instance.
The MSSQLSERVER service is logged in by this domain account.
The SQLSERVERAGENT service is also logged in by this domain account.
This domain account has a mail account at Exchange 2007 server.
Office 2007 (including outlook 2007) is installed on the same windows server machine that SQL resides in.
In Control Panel - Mail - Profiles: Outlook is the profile used.
In enterprise manager --> Support Services --> SQL Mail --> Properties --> I wrote Outlook in the profile name --> then click "Test" --> I encounter this error: "Error 18025: xp_test_mapi_profile: failed with mail error 0x80040111"
Any help please?

Iam not sure why Iam not able to successfully set up sql mail. here are the steps I follow:
1. I Created a user account and password to be used for sql server and sql agent as a service account.( Domain Namesqlservice )
2. Logged off window 2000 then log in with the same account I created in step one.
3. double clicked mail icon in control panel to set up a mail account by specifying the following:
pop :pop.erols.com
smtp: smtp.erols.com
I choose POP instead of IMAP to set up the mail account
4.tested the account by opening Outlook and was able to send and recieve mail via Outlook.
So far so good
I assume that I have already (a)created a service account to be used for sql server and sql agen mail account (b) created a mail account (c)tested the mail.
5. I opened sql server and clicked on the mail in the management console to test the sql mail by typing the same mail account in the text box, then clicking test.... I got an error message the MAPI is not set up and it is not connecting to any profile.
another error I got was Error :xp_mapi profile : failed with mail error 0x80040106
Here are some questions that I am not sure about.
Q1. Do I need to set up smtp service in service tab to use same account as sql server/ sql agent. It is using local system account now
Q2. the above steps are correct, I guess so, so what is the reason not being able to set up the mail profile to be used by sql server mail
Thanks for your help

Hello Friends
I want to send mail using Stored Procedure using SQL Server 2000 using windows smtp component. I don't want third party component.
can any body send Stored Procedure.
We just got a new server. We are running Windows 2000 with Office 2000 and SQL Server 2000 (Standard Edition).
To set up the mail for SQL 2000 it says to use Outlook client in "corporate" mode. This mode doesn't have the IMAP option on internet Mail only POP3.
Did I miss an option while installing Outlook?
I've only been able to find a third party vendor that has a solution but our IS/IT people are not in favour of going this route.
Any thoughts on how to get around this?
Thanks for your time.

Hello,
I am using a script to send mails from MSSQL 2000 server. The script is trying to use the ASPMail object is located within a SQL Job or DTS package in the SQL database. It is not being run through an ASP page. The ASPMail object works fine if running in an ASP page running on win2003 server. It DOES NOT work when trying to create the object within SQL ActiveX VB script running on mssql server. If I am using this script in a job and use Microsoft's Enterprise Manager it only tells me that the job failed. If I try to use this script in a DTS package I get the error: 'Can not create object ("SMTPsvg.Mailer"). If I use a third database manager I get the following error: 'Execute permission denied on object xp_ServiceControl database' Please let me know what is causing this and how to fix it. The script goes as below
'*************************************************
' Visual Basic ActiveX Script
'*************************************************
Dim Mailer
Set Mailer = CreateObject("SMTPsvg.Mailer")
Mailer.FromName = "Webmaster"
Mailer.FromAddress = "webmaster@domainname.com"
Mailer.RemoteHost = "mail.domainname.com"
Mailer.AddRecipient "user", "mailid@domainname.com"

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.
I'm trying to configure SQL server 2000 (standard edition) to send e-mail on a Small Business Server 2003. There's a great article on how to do this on a SBS 2000 server (KB304967), but it does not apply to SBS 2003. Can anyone point me to a article or white paper on how to configure SQL on a SBS 2003 server to send e-mail. 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.
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 = '' ;
Thanks
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 !!

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.
