Hi,
It sounds like the user that runs the SQLServer service hasn't got
access to logon to either the mailbox or to the Exchange server you are
using. You might have to check the the user that runs SQL Server also
is the one that has an Outlook profile setup on the server - otherwise
you might run into the problem.

Hi
Are you running this package from the designer or a job? The issue is that
the account under which it is running, does not have access to the MAPI
profile that you have configured for SQLMail. Check the accounts that SQL
Server and SQL Agent have been configured to run as and that they can access
the profile you have set up. Try logging in on the server as these accounts
and sending a test email.

mail client and dts send mail task

Hi,
Is it required to have microsoft outlook client up-and-running to send mail from dts package?
I have a dts package which send email if job fail or success. will it work fine if someone by mistek close outlook client running on server?
please reply.
Ram.No, the outlook client does not have to be running to use send-mail in a dts package.

The outlook client needs to be installed on the server and the profile needs to be created for the user context that will be running the dts package.

Here is where the confusion typically lies. When you run a DTS package interactively, the security context is who-ever you are logged in as. As such, it is relatively easy to debug. What most people don't understand is that if the DTS package is running based on some automated feature (timer, or another application starting it) the DTS package typically runs under the SQL Agent ID (Check the logon-id of the user that starts SQL Agent in control panel Services). You will need to use a specific ID, rather than system. This is because to use SQL Mail, you will have to interactively log-on as that user and configure outlook. Once you have done that, the SQL Agent will be able to send and receive e-mail without you being logged in.

Good luck.|||Originally posted by rmillman

Much thanks for your reply. explains me how dts send email . nothing to do with up-and-running mail client . it sends email internally useing agent.
cool.

Good luck.|||There's a great email extended procedure you can get that will allow you to send email without installing the outlook client on all your SQL servers. You can go this link for details: http://sqldev.net/xp/xpsmtp.htm

We have implemented this at LexisNexis by writing a wrapper procedure that calls the extended procedure. This provides a higher level security. You can call this from within a DTS package or via a job step within a scheduled job. We've been using this for quiet awhile with great success in all our maintenance plans for backups.
