Failed database mail in sql 2012 on windows server 2012

  • I have configured database mail in sql 2012 enterprise edition(64bit) on windows server 2008R2(64bit) which is not showing any error but it shows in

    select * from msdb.dbo.sysmail_faileditems .

    I tried it on yahoo mail.

    The configuration of smtp server is also done which I can access through telnet.but not able to send-receive any mails or even test mail in ssms.

    What is missing here.

    Do u require to configure pop3 mail or exchange server is needed.

  • Have you looked at this article (http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2578/setup-sql-server-database-mail-to-use-a-gmail-hotmail-yahoo-or-aol-account/) on MSSQLTIPS? It does explain the steps very well and has a list of servers/portnumbers included...
