How to configure email notification?

Dear all,

I am not sure if I am posting my question at the right place. Anyway, I hope
someone can help me out.
I have a scheduled job in SQL server agent and I would like to configure the
email notification if the job fails. When I tried to create a new email
operator name, I clicked on the small button [...] besides the "Email Name"
textbox, an error message "Unable to logon to the mail system. You should
start a mail client (Microsoft Outlook or Microsoft Exchange Client) to use
this feature." appeared. Can any teach me how to do the configuration?
Thanks a lot!

Try this link:

BTW - you'll probably have more luck resolving your issue in the
microsoft.public.sqlserver.server newsgroup. This one is dedicated to
Notification Services; although the name is similar, it's a different
technology altogether.

HTH...
