e-mailing users in SQL 2000

Hello:
Two questions.
First, generally speaking, how do you configure SQL 2000 to e-mail end
users? I have a SQL script that shows, in an accounting database, inventory
items that have not been purchased from a vendor within the last year. I
want to e-mail that list of items to end users on a monthly basis. That
list of items amounts to a report.
Secondly, my script has a specific date. It, basically, says < 06/01/06. I
don't want the IT staff to have to come in and update the date parameter. Is
there a way to place syntax in the script to pull the date from the operating
system?
Thanks!

I suggest you use xp_smtp from www.sqldev.net. The built-in email support in 2000 is based on MAPI
and is a hassle to get working.

Most probably (can't say for sure without knowing anything about your code). Check out the GETDATE()
function.

Email Subscriptions Issue

Hi,
I've been having an issue getting email subscriptions going. I've followed
the link on Configure a Report Server for E-mail Delivery on msdn2 and it
looks like it creates the report, I'm just getting an odd CAS issue I don't
know how to resolve.
Here is the info from my log

I've searched for the AspNetHostingPermission regards to this, but can't
seem to find it. I set an unattended execution account but no good there.
do I have to give whatever account the ReportingServiceServices is running
as AspNetHostingPermission access? And to what?
Thanks,
ChrisHi Chris,
Welcome to the MSDN newsgroup.
From your description, I understand you're encounering some problem in the
SQL 2005 reporting service when use the email delivery service to send
email notification, correct?
Based on the log entry you provided, the reporting service application is
concerning about the ASPNETHostPermission, this is quite strange and I
seldom see error on this object,(mostly it'll report error regarding on a
certain account or an API call...).
I think we can first try confirming this issue to be a .NET cas specific
one. You can use the "caspol.exe" tool(shiped with .net framework to
configure .NET code access policy setting)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpguide/htm
l/cpconusingcodeaccesssecuritypolicytoolcaspolexe.asp
use the "caspol.exe -s off" to temporarly disable the CAS checking. Test
the SSRS email delivery again under the CAS disabing mode to see whether it
still suffer the issue. If not, we can confirm the problem to be a .net CAS
configration or code evidence specifc issue.
Also, you can try creating another SSRS report and configure it to use
EMAIL delivery to see whethre this is a common problem on that server
machine.
In addition, here are some reference introducing the .NET CAS used in SQL
2005 reporting service:

Thanks for the response. So I ran caspol -s off which temporarily disabled
CAS checking. Ran the subscription and no dice. I tried running it as a
file share, same error as before with the ASPNetHostingPermission.
When you talk about creating a report for email delivery, what exactly do
you mean. I'm afraid I'm not sure what to do here.
Thanks!

So turn off CAS still suffer the problem, it is likely not a typical CAS
configuration issue. The "creating a report for email delivery" I mentioned
means create another report or a new email notification task to see whether
it also suffers the problem.
BTW, does this problem occur the first time on that server and have you
ever successfully used the email notification on that server before?

Thank you for the continued assistance. I've decided to escalate this to an

Check to see if your SQL Agent is Running:
Also Check if the DBMail is Started or Setup Properly.
Check SQL Agent is Running under a domain Service Account and if it
has required Priviliges (near to sa) - if the Jobs invlove sending out

email configuration - mail profile

Hi,

I want to configure my SQL Server 2000 to send me email using operator if there is any prob in the server.

I installed office 2000 , configure microsoft outlook, I am able to send - receive emails from the account I created. my mail server is up and running fine.

How can I configure my SQL Server 2000 to send me emails.

I am not able to see any profile in support services - SQL Mail .

In control panel if I double-clicked on mail, I can only see Account - SQLMAIL which I created for my email, type (mail (default)), connection - local area network.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks.There's another recent thread with a similar (I believe) issue. You need to ensure that when you are setting up your Outlook client that you are logged in as the SQL Agent service account. So, if you SQL Agent service is set up to run under MyDomain\MySQLAgent, you need to login as MyDomain\MySQLAgent and configure Outlook. Then open EM and configure SQL Mail.

Check out SQL BOL.

Regards,

Hugh Scott

How can I configure my SQL Server 2000 to send me emails.

I am not able to see any profile in support services - SQL Mail .

In control panel if I double-clicked on mail, I can only see Account - SQLMAIL which I created for my email, type (mail (default)), connection - local area network.

Appreciate your help.

Thanks.|||I'm facing a similar problem.
