I am running script from SQL agent which includes Database mail script also when job is running successfully no e-mail notification send from SQL job or Database mail.
When I am running this script from SSMS I do get mail notification but from SQL agent not getting .
Running on SQL 2008R2 , Also Database mail profile is enable in SQL agent properties.
if @@ROWCOUNT > 0
begin
declare @emailSubject varchar(100),
@columnHeaders varchar(1000),
@tableHTML nvarchar(max)
select @emailSubject = 'My Results Email', -- Subject of Email
@columnHeaders = xxxx</th><th>Customer</th><th>xxxxx</th><th>xxxxx</th><th>OpenedBy</th><th>xxxxxo</th><th>xxxxxxxxxx</th><th>xxxxxxl</th><th>xxxxxxxx</th><th>xxxxxxxxxx' -- Column headers (must put </th><th> between each header)
set @tableHTML =
'<div><b>Magic- Open Tickets</b></div>
' + -- This is the bold text at the top of your email
'<table border="1" cellpadding="5"><font face="Calibri" size=2>' +
'<tr><th>' + @columnHeaders + '</th></tr>' +
convert(nvarchar(max),
(
SELECT td = Tickets, '',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxx,'x'), '',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxx,'x'), '',
td = ISNULL([xxxxxxx], 'x'), '',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxxxxx,'x'), '',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxxxx,'x'), '',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxxx,'x'),'',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxxx, 'x'),'',
td = ISNULL(xxxxxxxxxxx, 'x') ,'',
td = ISNULL([Description],'x')
from master.dbo.xxxxxxxxxxx
for xml path('tr'), type
)) +
'</font></table>'
EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name = 'SQL-MailAlerts',
@recipients='xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
@subject = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx',
@body = @tableHTML,
@body_format = 'HTML' ;
end
Any workaround please?

first, make sure it hit the queue,a dn see if there is an error in the mail logs.

do you see your email in this select?

SELECT

sent_status As Reason,

err.[description],

mail.*

FROM [msdb].[dbo].[sysmail_allitems] mail

inner join [msdb].[dbo].[sysmail_event_log] err

ON err.mailitem_id = mail.mailitem_id

order by mailitem_id desc

my most common error is

The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 1 (2014-03-19T07:33:46). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 74.125.196.16:587).

after speaking with the network guys, i found that the firewall blocks all servers from sending to ports 25/825/587, to any ip address, unless the server is whitelisted in a number of places on our network.

the target machine actively refused , from experience, is a firewall issue, if that helps.

same query works fine from SSMS ..I get query result in e-mail . But when I am running through SQL job no notification of query result. and Even not showing any error from the above script you sent to check DB mail log.
