Hello,

What is the best way to send email notifications from within SQL Server 7?

I hope this is not a silly question, but I'm relatively new to SQL Server, and I'm trying to figure out sending email. My server OS is Windows 2000 Server. I looked up the help which discusses using xp_sendmail with a MAPI client, but I don't see anywhere to configure a MAPI client in control panel. I did try setting up a POP account in Outlook Express but using that account name does not work.

TIA,
-Isaac
