  • Hi,

    If the server is configured to use Database mail you can use this stored procedure : sp_send_dbmail

  • The best option is to configure the server to use DB Mail. DB Mail is easy to set up and is very reliable. With DB Mail, if your outgoing mail server is not available, all messages are automatically queued until they can be sent. SQL also keeps stats on DB mail usage.

    Any other way of sending mail is likey to be either harder to set up or be less reliable.
