Default Setting up SQL Mail


How do you setup SQL Mail? I tried following the procedures on the
online manual but I do not understand what "On the instance of SQL
Server, start the mail client using the newly created mail profile."
means. What is the mail client? I have already setup the mail profile
but when I go to SQL Mail on Services and try setting it up, the profile
I created is not showing on the pull down list.

I appreciate any assistance.

Thanks.

Hi

I am not sure where you are reading this, but the setup description that I
think is pretty good is at:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...rverE-mail.asp

You can have multiple instances of SQL Server on a given machine. The
account that you have set to run the SQL Server service (check in the
services applet on the administration menu) should be the same account that
you have logged in as on the server when you created the mapi profile. If
you use different accounts for different instances then you would have to
repeat it for each one.
