    sounds like you don't have the mail services setup correctly, either that or it's pointed at an SMTP server that is currently down and/or unreachable.

    Additionally, many anti virus programs have started blocking numerous ports by default, one of which is 25 (smtp mail port). Check and make sure that you can get to your SMTP sever from your server and that one of those apps isn't blocking your traffic.

    the easiest way is to log onto the server, open a cmd prompt and execute the following...

    telnet smtpservname 25

    That will force a telnet connection over port 25. If the connection is successful you know you are at least able to get there from your SQL server. Then you just need to check your settings.

    Another thing to check; If you're using exchange, or most other SMTP servers, make sure it allows relay from the Report Server.
