Configure SQL Server Agent Mail to Use SQL Mail.


Hi all,

This topic describes how to use SQL Server Management Studio to set up SQL Server Agent Mail to use SQL Mail. Before you can use SQL Mail, you must enable SQL Mail and set up a mail profile. SQL Mail can be enabled by opening the Properties dialog box from the SQL Mail node, by using the Surface Area Configuration facet of Policy-Based Management, or by the using the sp_configure stored procedure.



1) In Object Explorer, expand a server.

2) Right-click SQL Server Agent, and then click Properties.

3) On the Alert System page, click Enable mail profile. If this option is not available, enable SQL Mail and set up a mail profile.

4) In the Mail system list, choose SQL Mail.

5) In the Mail profile list, select the Extended MAPI mail profile you created for SQL Mail. For more information about configuring a mail profile, see How to: Configure Mail Profiles for Use by SQL Mail (Windows).

6) Restart the SQL Server Agent service for your changes to take effect. For more information, see How to: Restart the SQL Server Agent Service (SQL Server Management Studio).

7) To test SQL Mail, send a test message using xp_sendmail.

Thanks & Regards,
Saurav Dhyani

For an actual upgrade project, we will have to complete object merge using compare and Merge process. After the Merge Process, the next step is data migration. Let's discuss those steps. Direct Upgrade to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (on-Prem) is from following versions - 1. NAV 2015. 2. NAV 2016. 3. NAV 2017. 4. NAV 2018.
