Does anyone have any step by step instructions for how to send smtp mail from SQL?
I guess I can use xp_cmdshell to run a vb script or something but I have no clue besides that as to what's involved.
Hope someone can help.

but while in the same mail set up in previous instance of sql server 2005 the message was sending very well. After installing new instance of sql server 2005 the problem is arising.
Anybody can tell me that what I can do so that i can send mail using the SMTP databasemail account."
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.
Has anyone ever set up sql mail through smtp. I am trying to automate my server and not having to much success as i cannot use exchange for company reasons. I understand that i am able to set this up through outlook and not outlook express.
this is what i have tried to do:
1. Remove any MAPI application (Full Outlook or Microsoft Messaging from control panel). It is important that there are no mapi profiles on the server.
2. Logon to the SQL server using the SQLService account
3. Check that Outlook Express is the default Mail client (done from IE/tools/Internet Options/Programs)
4. Check that there is a mail account configured, pointing to an SMTP server, say aklexch1 (just put bogus stuff in for the POP server)
5. test that you can send a message (ignoring the receive errors) from Outlook Express to your @advantagegroup.co.nz address
Only after step 5 is working should you start testing from SQL
6. In SQL Mail config you will not see any profiles in the list but just type 'Default'
7. Create an SQL Operator with an @advantagegroup.co.nz address and click the test button
nb:i am setting this up on an win2000 server.
I am using a unix terminal via sendmail (which i assume is compliant), I have set up mail client in outlook express called SQLService. My main issue is that no mapi profile can be located on the server and sql server agent is recieving login failed attempts when I a attempt to start it! any ideas

Has anyone got deatils on how to go about setting up sql through an smtp client. I am unable to configure the automation service through outlook express as I understand that it is not supported. I am using a unix terminal via sendmail (which i assume is compliant), I have set up mail client in outlook express called SQLService (service account) and an exchange account.

I keep recieving Mapi and logon errors when starting mail and service manager. I have also tried using a internet mail account which has not worked either. I have been told that sql mail should have a default mail client that I have specified as the SQL service account. Any feedback or advise in this area would be extremley helpful as I am stumped at the moment.
Have anyone been able to set up mail using a SMTP server successfully?
Is it necessary to have a mailbox for outgoing mail on the SMTP server?

I would like to send mail from sql server using CDONTS.
I have the sql code for this and it works for internal addresses.
I get an error/warning saying that it cannot relay for external addresses when I try an outside domain.
Is there settings in IIS for the SMTP service that I can change to allow it to relay to the external domains?
I have everything running on the SQL Server, and I do not have access to the exchange server.
Thanks
SSIS dynamic SMTP mail server
Hi All,
I'm trying to make my SEND MAIL TASK in SSIS dynamic, by retrieving SMTP Server name (amongst other email message information) from a table.
I've got an SP that is getting the information into package variable's, and when I don't try and have a dynamic server name (i.e. I use a specified SMTP server in my SMPT Server connection), then the email get sent off.
I'm trying to use an expression to build alter the send mail to use the server name I have in a user variable.
I've tried using the expression for the property:
SmtpConnection set to: RTRIM( @[User::MailServer])
I also tried without the RTRIM - I only added it because the error messages seem to include a full 'string' length, and there doesn't seem to be a 'varchar' data type for SSIS variables.
so:
a> Is SMTPConnection the property I need to be setting? None of the others seem correct
b> If SMTPConnection IS the property I need, does the value give the SMTP Server Name, or just the Name of the connection from the Connection Manager's?
Thanks
Part-Answer to:
b> The SMPTConnection property sets the name of the CONNECTION to be used. That Connection needs to set the name of the server. So n ow, the question becomes, how do I configure that from SQL (I know how to use package configurations from XML files).
Hi
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?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
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?
thanks much,

Hi
I'm trying to send email from my rss script. It seems that the script cannot create an SmtpClient instance because of SmtpPermission problems, but I just can't find where I need to enable the SmtpPermission. I've tried many things, including web.config and rssrvpolicy.config.
Here's a code sample:
Public Sub Main
Dim smtpClient As New System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient
End Sub
and here's the output when I execute the above script under rs.exe against my local report server
Unhandled exception:
Request for the permission of type 'System.Net.Mail.SmtpPermission, System, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.
Any ideas?

Hi,
I want to setup a SMTP using gmail. How to configure it, it says,
In your email client software, under Outgoing mail, set the SMTP server to smtp.gmail.com.
Set the your username is yourgooglemailname@gmail.com and make sure "Use username and password" is checked.
Also check off "TLS" under "Use secure connection."
I tried to do this in code:
Dim htmlMessage As MailMessage
Dim mySmtpClient As SmtpClient
htmlMessage = New MailMessage(From, SendTo, Subject, Body)
htmlMessage.IsBodyHtml = IsBodyHTML
mySmtpClient = New SmtpClient(Server)
Dim myCred As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("myemail@gmail.com", "mypassword") 'CredentialCache
mySmtpClient.UseDefaultCredentials = False 'Credentials = System.Net.CredentialCache.DefaultNetworkCredentials
mySmtpClient.Credentials = myCred
mySmtpClient.Send(htmlMessage)
however, i cannot do the turning off of TLS in code. I'm often prompted with this error once i run:
The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.0 Must issue a STARTTLS command first
Anyone who knows how to do this?

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.
