    Database mail profiles are stored in a couple of tables in msdb like sysmail_profile, sysmail_profileaccount etc.

    So without being totally sure I would think that the limit would be the maximum number a table can hold or in this case the maximum value for integer, because the datatype int is used for the ID column.

    But my question would be why do you think you need a lot of different profiles? I never used more than one or two profiles per database.

  • Thanks a lot Markus...

    This question came as per the requirement from the AD team...so i guess, they need to create a number of profiles as per the app requirement...

    Thanks again!
