Email may fail when its loaded on win7 machine - but not when its on a server 2003 box. When testing trying to email an alert on Spotlight for SQL server enterprise, you may receive an error:
"Sending email Could not connect to SMTP host: ...., port:25: nested exception is: Permission denied: connect
If you do the same thing as a powershell script, it works fine.
Disabling Internet Email Auto-Protect resolves the issue.
