Hi Guys,
I have encountered problem in setting up SQLmail on clustered server. I have followed every instruction and restarted the cluster nodes.
->I logged onto server(cluster nodes) using NT account that is been used for SQL service start up
-> installed outlook 2000 client
-> created a profile for the SQL startup service acount
-> restarted the server(s) (I had to re-start the servers, Before re-start, i was unable to see mail profile in the drop-down list under "SQLMail" Properties)

After re-start, im able to send mails using outlook on the server successfully.
Then I tried testing froM SQLMail. Once, i Click on "test"
by selecting mail profile from drop down list,its hanging continuously.
I also tried from QA to start the mail session. Problem remains the same and its hanging the moment i issued xp_startmail command from QA

Did I Go wrong anywhere?your support is appreciated,
thanks in advance

Do you see the profile in the dropdown now?

When you log in to Outlook and send mails, is there any kind of authentication, or other dialog box that appears?

Are you using exchange? Or a POP3 internet mail server?
