I have a problem with Database mail, which we are currently trying to change accounts for a database mail with a gmail account.
The problem is when I try to send an email with the wrong email account, the sent_status is always "Sent" in the log.
whereas before, when we used local e-mail, always showed a failed status when we tried it with the wrong e-mail.
SQL Server will just trigger the mail through SMTP, But if you wanna track the delivery status then you should check on SMTP server, which has been used in Mail configuration.

I'm using SQL Server 2014
And I have procedure that send emails but when the recipients receive the email the display name it's not what I configured it shows my email .
Here is screenshot of mail account configuration:
And here you can see the emails that have been sent all with account_id =1 and profile_id = 1 which is in the previews screenshot.
And this is a email sample , you can see the sender name which is my problem why it is not " Property Pricing System" ?
How to solve this ?
The display name override is being prevented by security settings on your SMTP server. The server is looking up the name associated with that email account on your domain and using that. You can change the SMTP security settings to allow overrides and it should use the display name you provide.
If you do not have the ability to access the security settings, a workaround that might work is to try entering an email address that is not valid on the domain, then it will not have a display name to use and will use your display name provided. You can then add a valid reply to email if you need the receiver to respond.
When I create a new user in DNN, The newly created users are not notified by email from the system after they have been created. There is no difference between "tick" in "Notify" or not set (see the image below)
How I can setup the system in order to get user got notified by email after they have been created (in this case to email aldho_ah#yahoo.com)
Many Thanks
You'll need an SMTP server to send email. Go to Host > Host Settings > Advanced Settings > SMTP Server Settings, and you can see what information the portal needs:
The portal will send emails from the email address of the site's administrator, which is defined at Admin > Site Settings > Advanced Settings > Security Settings. This means that the SMTP server needs to have permission to send from that email address.
I am sending mail using SMTP in SQL server stored procedure. Now I need to check whether the email address is valid/active/exist or not. Email address format is okay. For example, abc#gmail.com is a email address where mail will be sent. The format is okay but before sending mail I need to check that the address is active/exist. If address is valid/, then the mail will be delivered.
Can any one help me?
The only thing that I think you could do would be go to the domain address of whoever assigned the the email and click lost password and see if it says the the email exists or does not exist. I would also look into the API of the email provider because if they give that information out publicly when you request a lost password then it may or may not be available through an API of some sort.
Does anyone know if there is a way to setup sql server to send all mail to one specific email address rather than what has been passed into sp_send_dbmail?
I ask as I need to verify what is going to be sent on a system that has customer email addresses and I don't want to actually send the email but rather check the contents.
The customer occasionally go onto this system to test certain things out which may trigger emails. At the moment these email are not sent out to anyone as the system is not setup for mail. I want this to stay the same but instead send all these mails to an internal email address. I don't know all the code that sends emails as there are approx. 3000 stored procedures in this system.
I have been searching on-line but can only find how to setup email.
If you're just looking to verify what will be sent, you can query the msdb.dbo.sysmail_mailitems table:
SELECT *
FROM msdb.dbo.sysmail_mailitems
This table holds the recipients, subject, body, format, query, sent_date, from_address, reply_to, and some other fields. I also suspect, though I haven't test, that if you updated that table to a new recipient email address that you could send them to the one address as you've requested above.
1)You can check mail is started or not using GUI.
2)you check email sending using following command.
Select * from msdb.dbo.sysmail_sentitems order by last_mod_date desc

Now check the checkbox “Allow all systems to successfully authenticate to relay regardless of the list above” and close. ....check with internal team for permission.
I have used the database mailing system to send the email. But i could not figure our whether the email is sent or not.
Is there any system table in sql server 2008 to insert the log whether the mail is sent or not. I want the sent 'email date from' , 'email date to' and Email Sent to. And is there any field that stores the mail sent like 'yes' or 'no'
Take a look at this article here. There are several tables in the msdb (system database) that are useful for tracking outgoing email status. From the article:
The Database Mail external program logs activity and displays the log
through the Windows Application Event Log and the sysmail_event_log
view in the msdb database. To check the status of an e-mail message,
run a query against this view. E-mail messages have one of four
possible statuses: sent, unsent, retrying, and failed.
Further, you can track additional info about the failures if you set the logging level to verbose when you configured your server for database mail.
