Did you try not giving anything. Its the same server as your outlook server. Get more details from your system admin.
Well both the approaches will achieve what you require. You have more flexibility in a sequence job by using notification activity. You can attach the job report etc.

Hi Gurus,
As gurus suggestion iam going for a sequence and linking it to notification activity.
my design is job activity1---->jobactivity2----->notificationactivity
parameters declared in jobactivities.
triggers tab-> conditional ok for both jobs.
in notification activity-
SMTP MAIL SERVER NAME: MAIL.SAAMA.COM
SENDERS EMAIL ID: KKK@SAMMA.COM
RECEIVER EMAIL ID: SSS@YAHOO.COM
i have given email subject too, it runs fine, but i didn't receive any notification mail to my yahoomail id. please help me, why am i not getting any mail yahoo, is there something iam missing.

plz help me.
cheers;

What does the log message in your director say about the job.
Does it say Sent message to 'SSS@YAHOO.COM' ?

Just curious, Do you get a mail when you send it to you@your_company.com
Give that a try.

Were you able to send the mail to your local network mail group?
You may need to set up each smtp for each mail group. eg: smtp.google.com,smtp.mail.yahoo.com

You can.
You don't need to change the SMTP Mail server name to send your mail to Yahoo or Google.
Were you successful in sending your mail to your company id?

Chances are that your company has blocked access to these "mail" email addresses. Check with the mail administrator.
