Sending an E-mail Notification for a Procedure

How to:

You can set up your server to send an email message that notifies recipients of the successful completion or failure of every procedure execution. In addition, you can request that an email message be sent to a designated recipient at the start or end of the request execution.

Prerequisites: This procedure assumes that the E-mail SMTP Server has been configured. For information, see SMTP Server Settings.
