SQL Mail Alerts - Can send email via query analyzer, but not Enterprise Manager

  • I have a windows server 2003 server updated to the max. SQL server 2000 and Outlook 2007 client installed also updated. The profile is setup and I can send emails from the server. When I try to send a test message to an operator via enterprise manager i get this error:

    Error 22022: SQLServerAgentError: The SQLServerAgent mail session is not running; check the mail profile and/or the SQLServerAgent service startup account in the SQLServerAgent properties dialog.

    I can stop mail using xp_stopmail

    I can start mail with xp_startmail

    I can send an email using xp_sendmail

    I can even start the mapi profile vie EM.

    The only thing i can't do is send from EM which i need to do in order for notifications to work.

    The profile account is the same as the SQL Server agent account. I have the same setup on a server which runs outlook 2003. Is SQL mail for SQL 2000 compatible with Outlook 2007? I don't see why it wouldn't. If its not compatible that's lame.

    Please help!

  • We are experiencing the same issue. Has anybody found the answer to this?

  • In the SQL Agent properties (not mail), do you have the same profile selected that you set up for the database server?

  • Yes and i also removed Outlook 2007 and installed 2003. I heard that SQL 2000 doesn't like the 2007 suite. Same exact issue.

    I'm going to reapply SP4 and reboot. We'll see what happens.

  • Yes, I also have the same profile account there and no luck.
