Sql Mail Problem

[mithun_eyes]

I Have Configured Two Different Outlook2003 Mail Profiles For Sql Mail And Sql Agent Mail. When I Do Testing The Message Comes Done Successfully But I Dont Receive And Mails In My Mailbox.

But When I Stop My Sqlserver Agent All The Mail Comes To Me Which Were Pending, So To Recive Mail I Have To Stop Sql Mail Agent Whcih Is Not Correct...

And Same Time When I Try To Access The Same Profile Of Sql Agent Mail Of Outlook 2003
It Says That Its Pst Is In Use....

So When I Stop Sql Agent It Allows Me To Use Outlook Oterwise It Gives Massage That Pst Is In Use......

So Please Guide Me What Check I Should Make ....

Thanks

It's not easy to make sql mail work with third party mail server. Did you post the problem in Microsoft MSDN forum? They may have something for you.
