I am faced with having to send mail from SQL Server, though, I'm finding it difficult to get Outlook installed on the box.

Do you have to use outlook? Outlook express comes with windows, just goto Add/Remove Programs and then Add/Remove windows componets and you can add it in if its not already installed on the box. Also you can use webmail if your mail server supports it.

Outlook Express isn't a MAPI Application and won't work with sending email using SQL. Therefore I need some other way outside of xp_sendmail to send the mail.
