This stored procedure is in the msdb database. This stored procedure starts the Database Mail queue that holds outgoing message requests and enables the Service Broker activation for the external program.

Note

This stored procedure only starts the queues for Database Mail. This stored procedure does not activate Service Broker message delivery in the database.

Permissions

Execute permissions for this procedure default to members of the sysadmin fixed server role.

Examples

The following example shows starting Database Mail in the msdb database. The example assumes that Database Mail has been enabled.

GO
