I am trying to configure Database Email on RDS for SQL Server.
I used this guide https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/SQLServer.DBMail.html
I am using existing, working SES credentials (used currently in EC2 instance)
The outbound security group rule is 0.0.0.0/0
When trying to send a email I get the below error:
The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 6 (2021-02-25T20:57:01). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond [aws ip]:587).
)
Any other ideas on this one?
The solution was to set up a VPC Endpoint

I have configured Gmail in SQL Server 2008, and it sends emails properly but after 6 Jun 2022 it does not send emails and shows email status failed with the following error:
The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 7 (2022-08-03T09:05:17). Exception Message: Cannot send mails to mail server. (The SMTP server requires a secure connection or the client was not authenticated. The server response was: 5.7.0 Authentication Required)
This is my configuration property
server name: smtp.gmail.com
port: 587
The server require secure connection : checked
Thanks in advance
Personal Gmail account doesn't allow connecting from "less secure apps" anymore.
Only from Google Workspace accounts (paid). In this case, you have to allow it in administration panel.
I think User Gmail Server Authentication needs to reauthorized

Sending Email through SQL Server FAILED
any other ways ?
Please check your settings on GMail. You need to switch on the 'Allow Less Secure Apps' setting so that it will allow third party apps such as SQL Server to access the GMail servers.
I created a new VM for SQL Server and trying to setup the dbmail. The smtp server settings are all valid but I can't send emails out. I keep on getting following error:
The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure.
(Sending Mail using Account 1 (2016-07-20T09:19:34).
Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 159.122.224.196:587).
)
I tried doing a telnet check on the IP and port no. from my my local machine and SQL Server VM. While the local machine just works fine, the SQL Server VM can't connect to the port.
I also tried to open a port 587 using the link http://michaelsync.net/2015/09/28/where-is-the-endpoint-setting-for-vm-in-new-azure-portal but even after allowing a port 587, I still can't send emails. Any help will be much appreciated.
NOTE: The IP address 159.122.224.196 belongs to sendgrid.
What E-mail (SMTP) server are you using?
Make sure that you're configuring connectivity to it correctly and that the E-mail server is
How do I configure Windows Server 2008 R2 to allow sending of email from an Integrated Services Package in SQL Server?
I am trying to send an email from an SSIS package that that has been imported into the MSDB stored packages.
When I run the package I get the below error:
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error
message: "Failure sending mail. System.Net.WebException: Unable to
connect to the remote server System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An
attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access
permissions
I have tried the same thing using a script task and MailMessage() and SmtpClient() in .NET and the task does not fail but it also does not send the email.
As a sidenote: I know there is a website setup on the server through IIS that is able to send emails via port 25.
I have given the package the same host IP address and port number, but it I still get an error.
Does anyone know what I can troubleshoot for finding a way to make this work?
Thanks
Does the package send the email successfully when running in debug mode on your dev workstation? If so, then I'm guessing the SMTP server is denying the SQL Server Integration Services server permission to connect. Perhaps the ip address of the SSIS server needs to be granted connect and/or relay permission in the SMTP product?
To test this, and other connectivity issues, telnet from the SSIS server to the SMTP server on port 25 (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/153119).
Additionally, set up Database Mail in SQL Server Database Services and test email from there. This also tests that the SMTP server allows the SSIS/MSSSQL server to connect and send mail.
Always test using both an internal email address and an external email address - that way you test relay permissions as well.
The problem was that the server had changed to use something other than the default TCP port.
The SSIS send email task only supports port 25, so I updated the script tasks and used them.
