Good afternoon. I have been working on configuration of Database mail. The scenario.

I have a 64-bit OS Windows 2003 R2.
1 Instance of SQL 64-bit SP2
1 Instance of SQL 32-bit SP2

Both instance are configured to use our remote SMTP server.

It was necessary to install the 32-bit version in order to run odbc drivers for Progress is the long and short of why 32-bit was added.
Anyhow, upon configuration of the 32-bit database mail the mail is unsent but there are not error messages anywhere. Upon configuring the 64-bit instance for SQL Mail the test email sends and is received without issue.

Both instance are named instance on the machine. The only explanation I could come up with is that it has something to do with being a 32-bit version running on 64-bit OS. I haven't been able to find anything online and thought someone may have had the same issue and knows how to resolve it. Thanks in advance for any help.
