Microsoft SQL Server includes extended stored procedures that allow SQL Server to send and receive mail messages through the built-in mail application programming interface (MAPI) client interface in Windows NT. A mail message can consist of short text strings, the output from a query, or an attached file. This SQL Server mail capability is called SQLMail.
This chapter shows you how to set up SQL Server as a Mail client, so that it can send mail messages through the MAPI client interface in Windows NT.
