Is SQL Mail and Database Mail supported in sql server 2005 express?
by chintan prajapati on Dec.05, 2007, under Sql Server 2005
Answer is No.
Few days before I was trying to send database mail via sql server 2005 Express with SP2.BUt it didn’t Work.
as Procedure [dbo].[sp_send_dbmail] requires a Parameter @profile_name which is of datatype sysname .
@profile_name sysname = NULL,
@profile_name can be found in table sysmail_profile( select * from sysmail_profile)
but Procedure is not accepting default ProfileName ‘DBMailProfile’
and After a little bit of google i found below article.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms165636.aspx
which clearly says that
