Moh,

FWIW - SQL Server MAPI will only wait a certain amount of time to deliver a
message. If it cannot get out, then the mail will 'fail' even though
Exchange is up and running and healthy. It might be Exchange, networking,
domain issues, etc. that cause the problem.

If you Google on "sql mail Failed to notify" you will see a few comments on
this, without any real help that I could find.

(Unless xp_smtp_sendmail would work for you.)
