Database Mail - Status Sent But Email Never Received
Jan 29, 2007From SQL Management Studion I go to Management > Database Mail and I am trying to send a test email but I never receive anything. I checked my SMTP Mail Server Logs and I saw no entry of my test email.
I also I checked my SQL Database Mail Logs and everything seems fine, no errors are reported.
The msdb.dbo.sysmail_allitems shows my email status as "sent".
So what am I missing? What steps would you recommend for troubleshooting my problem?
Thank you,

SQL 2005 E-mail Client Failing To Send Email Based On Job Status....
Mar 4, 2008Kind of a newby sql question, but here goes:I have a sql 2005 database that I have a job that runs Sunday morning at 12:30 am. I set it up using SQL Svr Mgt Studio 2005. Under the Management directory I set up Database Mail to work with my local SMTP server. I can send a test email just fine.I then set myself up as an operator with my email address. (Under operators directory) I then went back to the properties of the job I set up, and under 'notification', chose e-mail operator (me) when Job Succeeds. The job runs, itt suceeds, but NO email!It flat out won't work. there are NO entries in teh( email) log for errors either. Anyone? TIA Dan OR is it better to script these jobs using xml? I don't have time to learn a new thing right now, just need it to work!

Sep 24, 2014I need to create a basic report that displays the userid, username, email, status and need to update the status column to enabled when we select any particular username. And the username parameter comes from the available users from the database. How to do this?
Do I need to mention the where clause where username=@username in the query or we don't need any
Also I need to get the available distinct usernames from the database while entering the parameter username
/*DECLARE variables to use IN queries*/
DECLARE @intErrorCode INT
DECLARE @ErrorMessage VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @UserID INT
SET @ErrorMessage = 'Completed.'
SELECT [userid] ,
[code].....
Basically first I need to find the userid, username, accountstatus, email for a given particular user. Then I need to update the accountstatus to enabled for that selected user.
Also I need to create auditing that from before update and after update the accountstatus.

I'm having problems sending my query results as a csv file. Ideally I would be able to send my results from a sql job every night as a csv but I'm having problems doing it. My code is shown below
Code Block

from Disb_1 a1 inner join Details on a1.c#=Details.c#

I've tried many different things and been through the parameters of sp_send_dbmail but I just cant find anything.
Also, how can I use column names for those money conversions? At the moment it just says 'no column name'

Xp Sendmail Says 'mail Sent' But No Email Arrives
Sep 14, 2004I have setup SQL Mail on a SQL Server 2000 (service pk 3a) with outlook 2002.
SQL Mail give me the success message when I test the profile.
When I send a test message to an operator from SQL Agent it works fine.
When I send a message from the Outlook 2002 client (logged in as the Service-SQL domain account), I can send a message without a problem.
However, when I send an xp_sendmail message (xp_sendmail @recipients='email@address',@message='test',@subje ct='test') it tells me 'Mail Sent' in the result window, but the email never arrives or shows up in the 'sent items' folder in outlook 2002.
Anyone else have this issue.
Thanks - Rick
Sending Email Without Using Database Mail

SQL Server 2014 :: Passing Malformed Email Address To Send Mail Task?
Feb 5, 2015I am implementing a fax solution (Right Fax) and pulling email information from a table and passing into a variable. In order to send out a fax via email, the syntax is in the following example below:
Example:
To send a fax from Outlook to Jane Doe at 555-1212, enter:
[RFAX:Jane Doe@/FN=555-1212]
When the following syntax gets passed into the Send Mail Task, into the "To" line and the package is executed I'm receiving the following.
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "The specified string is not in the form required for an e-mail address.".
[Send Mail Task] Warning: The address in the "To" line is malformed. It is either missing the "@" symbol or is not valid.
I realize it’s a malformed email address. Is it possible to create a group and instead of the fax syntax pass the group name?

Explaining Importance To End Users
Jul 17, 2007Hello Experts at Microsoft.
I am thinking of an easy way to explain importance to Marketers without going into the math. This is what i came up with so far. Does this sound correct to you guys?
Reasoning:
IMPORTANCE = Log(Improvement)
Improvement=P(X&Y)/(P(x)*P(y))
Improvement= (Probability 2 products are sold together)/(random chance 2 products are sold together)
If the (Probability 2 products are sold together) = (random chance 2 products are sold together) then Improvement=1. The log(1) = 0
IMPORTANCE SCORE
-2 to -1 10 to 100 times less likely than random chance
-1 to 0 0 to 10 times less likely than random chance
0 to 1 0 to 10 times more likely than random chance
1 to 2 10 to 100 times more likely than random chance
2 to 3 100 to 1000 times more likely than random chance
3 to 4 1000 to 10000 times more likely than random chance
4 to 5 10000 to 100000 times more likely than random chance
5 to 6 100000 to 1000000 times more likely than random chance
6 to 7 1000000 to 10000000 times more likely than random chance
Association Rules - Importance
Feb 14, 2008
I understand Mr. MacLennan's explanation provided at http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=282651&SiteID=1 and appreciate the time he took to explain how importance works. However, like the user with username "sang", I also ran the data in BI 2005 and got the same results listed by the aforementioned user. I did this using the following data:
donut

etc.
The rule muffin -> donut has an importance of -0.105302438, which is not the same as Mr. MacLennan's results. I tried switching the roles of a and b in a -> b and using different bases on the logarithms. I don't get the result of -0.105302438 with any of these. I also tried to calculate importance with a small data set I have and can't get the results using Mr. MacLennan's explanation with that data set either. Any thoughts on the descrepancy?

The Mean Of Using Association With Importance And Probability
Apr 12, 2007hi,
i have a exercise using association datamining
my database have 350 records,
i use 90 records for datamining and it release some rules which i choose on top of mSOLAP_NODE_SCORE,
but when i use select statement to check my result i have 1 records, the same as my result, and 5 records not true;
for example:
rules A=a,B=b-> C=c
select * from <my_table> where A='a' and B='b' and C='c'; ==>1 record return
select * from <my_table> where A='a' and B='b' and C<>'c'; ==>5 records return
C with 3 values c1,c2,c
with the second statement C includes 2 c1 and 3 c2
i don't understand how they work.
i want to choose some best rules can present my database.
how can i choose importance and probability to get best rules.
with database have 90 records and a database have 350 records which values i should use for minimum_probability, Minimum_Support, Minimum_importance...
when i choose rules i should choose on importance or probability.
thanks for your help

UNION
SELECT id,name,text,2 AS searchorder FROM table1 WHERE text LIKE '*yellow*'
ORDER BY searchorder
The output is this:
Code:
ID NAME TEXT SEARCHORDER
3 Yellow apples Great yellow apples 1
2 Bananas Fine yellow bananas 2
3 Yellow apples Great yellow apples 2
So far so good - the order by importance works - but I do not get unique columns because of the searchorder column.
Can I fix my SQL so I get unique columns where the last line of "Yellow apples" does not appear or am I lost in space?
