Hi Friends,
I'm trying to e-mail (from PL/SQL Procedure) to hotmail/yahoo.com using Oracle9i Utility UTL_SMTP since last 02 days but getting error again and again.

Hi,
:) Problem Get SOLVED :)
I changed 01 thing and every thing is fine.
msg_from Varchar2(50) := '[email protected]';---------Sender email address.
>mailhost Varchar2(30) := 'HP-myoffice-System';------------Dbase reside on host.
mailhost Varchar2(30) := 'SMTP_IP';--Must mention SMTP SERVR Name/IP.
Now I've e-mailed.
