Hi All,

I try to create a database mail profile in the sql server using SSMS.

I am not sure what to write for email address. Should I first create an email address and use that email address here?

Thanks

    Hi @Nishan Ratna

    This email address is the email address that sent the email.

    For more details about configuring Database Mail, you can refer to this link: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/database-mail/configure-database-mail?view=sql-server-ver16.

    Best regards,

    Aniya
