Remarks
Do not use the AssemblyName element for the HttpExtension delivery protocol included with Microsoft SQL Server Notification Services.
If you do not know the class and assembly names for a custom protocol, contact the developer or supplier who provided the custom delivery protocol. The assembly name is usually the name of a DLL containing the custom delivery protocol implementation and the class name is the class within the assembly for the protocol.
You must use either the full path to the assembly or the assembly's strong name.
Example
This example shows how to specify that the short message service (SMS) protocol class is located in the SMS.dll assembly.
<AssemblyName>C:\MyAssemblies\SMS.dll</AssemblyName>
The following example shows how to specify the assembly's strong name.

PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089d</AssemblyName>
