Hello,
Does anyone know how I can set SQL Server up so that after it has
completed a backup sucessfully it will send the completion report to
an e-mail address via SMTP.
Unfortunatly we cannot install MS OUTLOOK Express or similar.
Is this possible?
Many thanks in advance,
Allan Martin

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.
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?
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).

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.
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 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.
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 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

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.

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.

hello,
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.

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?
Regards,
James Robb
More and more often, I am seeing this error message in RS subscriptions. I would assume it means the IIS server can't connect to the corporate exchange server. However I was wondering if there is some timeout setting/configuration in RS or the IIS server (or any other kind of setting) I can change to help alleviate this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this? Or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jeff
UPDATE: After looking closer at the subscriptions, I have noticed that subscriptions set up by a RS Admin (who is also a server admin) seem to be working fine. It is the subscriptions that are set up by ordinary users that are failing...
I am trying to create subscription on report manager.
Getting this error: "Failure sending mail: The transport failed to connect to the server. ".
how to resolve this..
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?
thanks much,

I am having a problem with SqlServer 7.0 sending mail when the sqlserver account is not logged into the machine and mail is open. If I log off of the box and an alert sends mail it just sits in the outbox of the mail client until I log in. Is this the way it is supposed to be or am I doing something wrong. I am using the Inbox as my client.

Hello all,
I've run into a situation which I'm not sure which option to use. I have a web-based app that needs to send an email to a user once an auction has ended (the user being the winning bidder). The backend of the app is SQL 2005. I'm trying to figure out how to get this to work but I'm not sure if I should be using Database Mail or if I should be using a windows service on the web server that pings the database to check if the auction has ended and if the user has been notified. Can anyone shed some light as to which way I should be doing this? Additionally, I'm planning on formatting the style of the mail message so it'll need to be in HTML format and not plain text.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Axel
Hi,
I have few DTS package schedule on my SQL Server 7. When the DTS fail, it's supposed to send an e-mail to me. But, for an unknown reason, the server send me some e-mail to report the failure of the DTS and suddenly...nothing. The server stop sending e-mail to report the failure of the DTS package. I decided to restart the Server and... i receive over 300 e-mails that i was supposed to receive 3 week ago about the failure of the DTS package. It's not the first time that this problem occur and everytime i need to restart the server, now i am tired of that.
Does anyone have see this problem before?
