databasemail.exe not triggered after updating sql server 2017.

Good day All,

I have resolved the issue after having a look on "https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/fb23d109-00ef-4db6-99e7-19d1146ada5b/service-broker-and-sql-mail?forum=sqlservicebroker". The person said his issue have been resolved by removing a conflicting entry in the server's hosts file.

I would just like to clarify his answer.

You navigate to "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc" and open the hosts file.

Remove all extra entries that have been made and save the file. Then your emails should go out. You may off cause now reinsert your entries one by one to determine which one caused the issue.
