You need a separate SMTP server to handle the emails - MSSQL itself
doesn't do that; most email servers support SMTP, so you may be able to
use your organization's existing server. Many companies find it useful
to have SMTP available for applications (including MSSQL) to use, since
it's a well-established standard and there are plenty of client
libraries available.
