| I have a server that has been running SQLMAIL for about 2 years using the same account to run the services that has access to the mailbox and have experienced no problems. About a month ago Mail didn't start when the machine was rebooted, I can test the profile via "support services > SQL Mail" successfully and also via the SQL Agent properties but I cannot start mail. SQLMAIL shows as starting in the SQL Log with no subsequent "Mail session started" later on in the log. I have upgraded to Outlook 2000 on the server, rebooted, then replaced the .dll with one from another server that I know is okay, disabled mail upon start-up and re-booted, killed MAPI32.exe process that seems to hang around and manually started mail using xp_startmail. The extended stored procedure goes into "hang mode" and freezes Enterprise Manager. I have tried starting mail about 20 times in the last 3 weeks to no avail. I have gone through and tested permissions using the \\NET USE \\<computername>\IPC$ to ensure I have permissions and nothing seems to be working.I know the account that both agent and sql run under has access to the mailbox as I can run mail logged onto the server as this account. Does anyone have any suggestions ?Thanks in advance,Clea |
