Remarks

The delivery channel name must be unique within the instance of SQL Server 2005 Notification Services. Notification Services names are not case-sensitive. For example, Notification Services does not distinguish between "EmailChannel" and "emailchannel."

Delivery channel names cannot contain the following characters: open bracket ([), close bracket (]), quotation mark ("), single quote ('), backslash (\), and forward slash (/).

Renaming a delivery channel is equivalent to deleting the old delivery channel and creating the new delivery channel. After you rename the delivery channel, update any subscriber device records that contain the old delivery channel.

Example

This example shows how to specify a delivery channel name of EmailChannel.
