nt 4.0, service pack 6
sql server 7.0
outlook 2000
i went through the microsoft article(s) step by step:
-> installed outlook 2000
-> made sure no old mapi32.dll are lingering, only new one is present
-> logged in as domain admin, ie the same user that runs sql server and agent
-> created profile that connects to pop3/smtp server
-> tested the setup via outlook - mail is successfully delivered
i cannot start sql mail UNLESS outlook is opened. once i open outlook, sql
mail starts up fine,
and i can execute a test call to xp_sendmail - messages go out and arrive at
their destination.
i do, however, have the following two problems:
1. clicking the Test button always fails with "Error 22030: A MAPI
error(error number :273) MapiLogonEx Failed due to
error 273:.."
2. sql mail would not start unless outlook is open.
any help would be appreciated.
thanks!
