The start mail session parameter enables and disables the automatic initiation of an Adaptive Server mail session when you start Adaptive Server. This feature is available on Windows NT servers only.
A value of 1 configures Adaptive Server to start a mail session the next time Adaptive Server is started. A value of 0 configures Adaptive Server not to start a mail session at the next restart.
If start mail session is 0, you can start an Adaptive Server mail session explicitly, using the xp_startmail system ESP.
Before setting the start mail session parameter, you must prepare your Windows NT system by creating a mailbox and mail profile for Adaptive Server. Then, you must create an Adaptive Server account for Sybmail. See Configuration Guide for Windows NT for information about preparing your system for Sybmail.
