Well, do you have all the required other pieces like a MAPI mail client? If not, you can't use SQL Mail. Was 2000 put on a new machine, or an upgrade to your 7.0?

You no longer now have to explicitly call xp_startmail in SQL 2000, the xp_sendmail extended proc does this for you, thus there is no need to manually start mail from Enterprise Manager and thus it has been removed. You can still call xp_startmail if you want to but it is unnecessary
