If you need to generate scripts for your current SQL Server 2016 Database Mail profile setup and configurations, you can use the following T-SQL script. This script will help you create and drop the Database Mail profiles and accounts. Follow the steps below to ensure you capture all necessary settings.
Steps to Generate the Script
- Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS).
- Connect to your SQL Server instance.
- Open a new query window.
- Copy and paste the provided T-SQL script.
- Execute the script.
* The only thing you have to change the in the script is NotTheRealPassword with your real password.

- Configuration: This script configures the necessary settings to enable Database Mail in SQL Server.
- Profiles and Accounts: It scripts out the existing Database Mail profiles and accounts. If the profiles or accounts do not exist, it creates them.
- Profile-Account Associations: It associates accounts with profiles if they are not already associated.
- Drop Settings: It includes commented-out sections for dropping profiles, accounts, and their associations if needed.
Execution
Run this script in your SQL Server Management Studio to generate the current Database Mail setup. The output will give you the necessary scripts to recreate your Database Mail profiles and accounts, as well as scripts to drop them if required.
By using this script, you can easily back up your Database Mail configurations and ensure you can recreate them on another server or after a server rebuild.
