How to configure SQL Server Database Mail to send email using your Windows Live Mail Account or your GMail Account

Hi Friends,

This post comes as a response to requests from many of our customers, who want to know the step by step process on how to configure SQL Server Database Mail to send emails using their Windows Live Mail Account or their Gmail Account.

If you are using SQL Server 2005 or higher, you might have noticed that there is now a “Database Mail” (DB Mail) option under “Management” . This is very different from the “SQL Mail” that we had on previous versions (it still exists under Management\Legacy). Using DB Mail, you no longer have to configure a mailbox on your machine, and you certainly do not need to run the SQL Server or the SQL Server Agent under the account you want to send emails from. Moreover, you can have multiple mail profiles and you can decide which account to use under various conditions.

So, here we go on the steps to configure DB Mail:

  1. Right-Click on Database Mail and choose Configure Database Mail.

    DBMail01

  2. This starts the Database Mail Configuration Wizard. Click Next.

  3. In the Select Configuration Task screen, choose “Set up Database Mail by performing the following tasks:” and click “Next” .

    DBMail02

  4. Now, you will be required to enter a Profile Name. This can be any Arbitrary Name that will help you identify the Profile. You might also want to add a Description. Now, click on Add.

    DBMail03

  5. Now, you are prompted to create a New Database Mail Account. Enter any Account Name and Description. The other parameters are as follows:

    • For configuring Windows Live Mail:

      Email address: Your Live e-mail ID
      Display name: Your name
      Reply e-mail: Any reply-to email account
      Server name: smtp.live.com
      Port number: 25
      This server requires a secure connection (SSL): Checked ON

      In the next section, choose Basic Authentication and enter the following information:
      User name: Your Live e-mail ID
      Password: Password for your Live e-mail ID
      Confirm password: Password for your Live e-mail ID

      The configuration should look like the screenshot below. Now, click OK.

      DBMail04

    • For configuring Google Mail (Gmail):

      Email address: Your Gmail ID
      Display name: Your name
      Reply e-mail: Any reply-to email account
      Server name: smtp.gmail.com
      Port number: 587
      This server requires a secure connection (SSL): Checked ON
      (Settings looked up from Gmail Help)

      In the next section, choose Basic Authentication and enter the following information:
      User name: Your gmail ID
      Password: Password for your gmail ID
      Confirm password: Password for your gmail ID

      The configuration should look like the screenshot below. Now, click OK.

      DBMail05

  6. Back on the New Profile screen, click Next. The next Manage Profile Security screen allows you to set the Public Profiles, the Private Profiles and the Default Profiles for each of the Public and Private Profiles.

    DBMail06

  7. Click Next. This will move us to the Configure System Parameters screen. You may want to tweak the parameters; however, for demonstration purposes, we will keep these as default. Now, click Next.

    DBMail07

  8. In the Complete the Wizard screen, review the parameters and click Finish. Ensure that all the 5 Actions succeed and then click Close.

    DBMail08

  9. Your DB Mail should now be configured successfully and you should be all setup to send emails using DB Mail. But before we confirm success, we will like to send a test email and confirm receipt. To do that, right-click on Database Mail and choose Send Test E-Mail…

    DBMail09

  10. Enter a To: email id and click Send Test E-Mail.

    DBMail10

  11. You should receive the email in a few seconds. If you have received the email, you have been able to configure DB Mail successfully, and you can now start using DB Mail.

Hope this post will be helpful.

    Hi Suhas, I have configured the Database Mail, and the test email is successful. I have to also use this database Mail profile and build the SQL Server Agent job called Automated Email. When the job run, I want the email to be sent to the administrators that backup job was successsful and it should include all the files created in the backup process. So in the job command the code is as the following: The job runs successfully but when I add the following parameter but this parameter is not working @file_attachment = 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server.....error the Access denied. What is the right way to work on that, how do I cross this hurdle. I am using sqlserver 2005. Use msdb GO EXEC sp_send_dbmail  @profile_name ='DB Mail Profile', @recipients ='csaha@imsa.edu', @copy_recipients ='csaha@imsa.edu', @blind_copy_recipients='csaha@imsa.edu', @body ='This is a test message', @subject='Database Backup', @body_format='TEXT', @importance='Normal', @sensitivity='Normal' Chitra

    Chitra, If you are using SQL server to send email attachment files in systems other than SQL Server will not be accepted. Use Windows account and provide access to the directory . Is C: you are referring to is on database server or on some other system ? Thanks Srinvas

    February 19, 2010
    Hi Srinivas, I am using SQL Server to send email. C drive is in sqlserver 2005. All I need to do is after the backup job is successful it will be reading the all backup file names. Some else also suggested me to use Windows account and provide access to the directory, but I do not know how that is possible. Any advice in that respect will be of great help. Thanks Chitra

    Hi Chitra, Here's some information from the Books Online: "Database Mail uses the Microsoft Windows security context of the current user to control access to files. Therefore, users who are authenticated with SQL Server Authentication cannot attach files using @file_attachments. Windows does not allow SQL Server to provide credentials from a remote computer to another remote computer. Therefore, Database Mail may not be able to attach files from a network share in cases where the command is run from a computer other than the computer that SQL Server runs on." So, 2 things that you might want to check:

  1. Are you logged on to SQL Server using Windows Authentication?
  2. Does this Windows Account have permission to the file you are trying to attach? If your answer is "NO" for any of these, you cannot send a file as an attachment.

    Hi Suhas, The answer to the above two questions are no, I am using a sql authentication account. However for the job to be successful I can use a windows account.

    February 21, 2010
    Hi Chitra, You have to use a Windows Account. I am not sure if the account needs SysAdmin privileges in SQL Server. I am sure you will be able to figure that out yourself. Make sure that the Windows Account you use has READ permission on the folder containing your backup set. Suhas

    Hi Siva, Database Mail is for sending email, not receiving or reading email. Your objective can be fulfilled only by a custom application that reads email and enters that into SQL Server. Hi Nainesh, You need to get the exchange server details from your exchange admin. Use these details to configure DBMail, and you should be able to send email. Suhas

    Kamlesh, the error message says that the issue is due to a Mail Server Failure. DBMail tried sending the email, but the client could not be authenticated. This failure is outside the SQL Server, i.e., at the mail server. Please contact your email administrator for a resolution. Alos, if you are trying to use DBMail with Live Mail or GMail, you will need a paid membership if you want to send emails in bulk. For free accounts, they will not allow you to spam the SMTP Server.

    Hi Suhas, Thank you so much for solving my problem....... But Suhas, I have found the way the to send mail in html format that is "@body_format='HTML'". In this way we can send it. I hope you know this... then also i want to confirm that        Is that right format??????

    October 17, 2010
    Sorry Kamlesh, I overlooked that. Yes, you can use @body_format = 'HTML' to send emails in HTML format. [ @body_format = ] 'body_format' Is the format of the message body. The parameter is of type varchar(20), with a default of NULL. When specified, the headers of the outgoing message are set to indicate that the message body has the specified format. The parameter may contain one of the following values: TEXT HTML Defaults to TEXT.

    Hi Brian / Efi, To be able to send email, the SQL Server must be able to talk directly with the SMTP Server. Most proxies work as HTTP proxies; that is, your HTTP request (from your web browser) goes to the Proxy Server, and the Proxy Server connects to the Internet to get that data for you. Later, that data is sent back by the Proxy Server to your browser (after optionally caching the page on the proxy server). These proxies cannot interprete or forward SMTP requests. Hence, if your SQL Server is not connected to the Internet (using an Internet IP Address), DBMail does not work. If you want to remain behind a proxy and still want to be able to send emails using GMail or Live Mail, you will need to have, what is called an SMTP Proxy. Bing search can pull up list of SMTP Proxy (Microsoft has no product on these lines), but you will need to evaluate (and buy) the best ones. Hope this helps. Thanks, Suhas

    Hi All, Even after you give, all the apt details your test mails will not be delivered because they will be blocked by google account policies or Internet Explorer Enhanced Security Configuration 'IE ESC' 1: Disable 'IE ESC' (Start>Administrative Tools> Server Manager>Configure IE ESC (Right Hand Side, middle of the page, last row)>Left Click> Off for Administrators & Users)

  1. Verify you gmail inbox for any blocked alerts from google. If you open you see something like 'if this was you' select the given url, now you will be directed to a page something like 'Less Secure apps' click on 'Turn On' Now try to send a test mail again and check your inbox, you'll get it!!!!!!! Least bothered about time...... Regards, Kalyan
