Mark,
Sorry to take so long to reply. I rebuilt my machine and lost track of
some messages.
I have no comment on SQLMail because I have no relation to that technology.
Hopefully an MVP or someone else might have some input. If not, you can
always open a case with us and one of our Technical Routers can assist in
getting you to the right person.

| I would agree with you about ASP.NET and Office Automation. What's your
view
| on SQL Server's SQLMail? Because it requires an Outlook client to be
| installed on the server, is it just as prone to the deadlocks as ASP.NET
| instantiating Outlook directly?
|
| I've also seen a system where the web server adds records to a SQL Server
| table on the Exchange Server and a Windows service sniffs this table for
new
| records and processes them...
