[!INCLUDE SQL Server SQL MI] The msdb database is the Database Mail host database. This database contains the stored procedures and messaging objects for Database Mail. Microsoft [!INCLUDEssManStudioFull] includes the Database Mail Configuration Wizard for enabling Database Mail, creating and managing profiles and accounts, and configuring Database Mail options.
[!INCLUDEssSB] must be enabled in the msdb database. However, Database Mail does not use [!INCLUDEssSB] networking. Therefore, users do not have to create a [!INCLUDEssSB] endpoint to use Database Mail. The external Database Mail process uses a standard [!INCLUDEvstecado] connection to communicate with [!INCLUDEssNoVersion].
Database Mail exposes the following objects in the msdb database when Database Mail is enabled.
These objects are the interface for Database Mail within the mail host database. Other objects are installed to implement the functionality provided by the objects listed above. However, those objects are reserved for internal use.
