Unable to get Email alerts

Question

I am not sure if I am in the right group.

 

I am trying to do the following on SQL 2005

- Email completion alerts from our maintenance jobs.

- Email task from SSIS tasks.

 

I have Database Mail running within Management Studio

I performed a test Email (Database Mail) and I got it.

I performed a telnet mailserver 25 test and I got it.

I have a receiver connection with the IP address of the SQL server on my mailserver.

 

 

I edited a maintenance job and setup an Email alert within the Notifications.

I run the job and I don't get Email alert (when the job completes)

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks

Discovered the following.

Needed to Enable Mail Profile in Database Mail
Needed to start the Messenger Service

All is well!
