Mail

Greetings !
I want to receive mail notification from backup job on SQL Server outside of
my company.
Everything works when I have Exchange Server.
But I have Unix Mail Server in that company.
How should I configure mail client on my Server ?
What to use, Microsoft Outlook for a client, and how must I configure it ?
Platfom Sql Server 2000 on Windows 2000 Server.
Thanks in advance
Gj.If outlook is a permissable client then you can install it. Just configure
the ID that SQL is running under has an email account. Make it the default
mail account.
Log into the server as the SQL ID
After you have mail configured and can send email from the ID then
Configure your SQL MAil settings.
Then reboot.
After the reboot test it with an xp_sendmail script.
Then you can configure your operators.
