Send email from SQL Server stored procedure

Step 1: Enable Reconfigure in SQL by using below script.

sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
sp_configure 'Ole Automation Procedures', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO

Step 2: Create Stored procedure by using below script

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[sp_send_mail]
@from varchar(500) ,
@to varchar(500) ,
@subject varchar(500),
@body varchar(4000) ,
@bodytype varchar(10),
@output_mesg varchar(10) output,
@output_desc varchar(1000) output
AS
DECLARE @imsg int
DECLARE @hr int
DECLARE @source varchar(255)
DECLARE @description varchar(500)

EXEC @hr = sp_oacreate 'cdo.message', @imsg out

--SendUsing Specifies Whether to send using port (2) or using pickup directory (1)
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg,
'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing").value','2'

--SMTP Server
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver").value', 
  'smtp.gmail.com' 

--UserName
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusername").value', 
  'sender@gmail.com' 

--Password
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendpassword").value', 
  'xxxxxx' 

--UseSSL
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpusessl").value', 
  'True' 

--PORT 
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport").value', 
  '465' 

--Requires Aunthentication None(0) / Basic(1)
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 
  'configuration.fields("http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpauthenticate").value', 
  '1' 

EXEC @hr = sp_oamethod @imsg, 'configuration.fields.update', null
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 'to', @to
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 'from', @from
EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, 'subject', @subject

-- if you are using html e-mail, use 'htmlbody' instead of 'textbody'.

EXEC @hr = sp_oasetproperty @imsg, @bodytype, @body
EXEC @hr = sp_oamethod @imsg, 'send', null

SET @output_mesg = 'Success'

-- sample error handling.
IF @hr <>0 
SELECT @hr
BEGIN
EXEC @hr = sp_oageterrorinfo null, @source out, @description out
IF @hr = 0
BEGIN
--set @output_desc = ' source: ' + @source
set @output_desc =  @description
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SET @output_desc = ' sp_oageterrorinfo failed'
END
IF not @output_desc is NULL
SET @output_mesg = 'Error'
END
EXEC @hr = sp_oadestroy @imsg


Step 3: Execute Stored procedure (to send email to sender) by using below script

DECLARE @out_desc varchar(1000),
@out_mesg varchar(10)

EXEC sp_send_mail 'sender@gmail.com',
'receiver@gmail.com',
'Hello', 
'<b>This is s Test Mail</b>',
'htmlbody', @output_mesg = @out_mesg output, @output_desc = @out_desc output

PRINT @out_mesg
PRINT @out_desc
