SQL 200 Mail

If i setup a mail profile using Outlook 2000 on the SQL server. If i use that profile for SQL Mail, does Outlook have to be open to send mail?

thanks,

If you have an exchange server no. If you have POP3 then yes.

If you are just sending mail, and you have POP3 google for sp_smtp_sendmail and install that. It will allow you to send mail without using Outlook.
