Hi Nicolas,
Thanks for posting here! Many thanks to Steve's input!
Steve's answer is accurate. What is more, I would like to give you some
information about the issue:
To configure SQL Server to send email on Small Business Server, we can use
"newprof -p .\sbs.prf" command to create a new email profile. With this
profile, you will be able to send SQLMail from this server.
For more information, please refer to the following Microsoft Knowledge
