Sending Email Alerts in SQL Server 2000

I did this a few years ago - hastily adapted from MS Knowledgebase article. I changed the parameters to be hardcoded variables. I removed the server identification names / email addresses, etc. Etc., but you have to be able to figure it out!

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo]. [usp_SendSuccessMail] - Adapted from Microsoft Knowledge Base article, January 16, 2006

 --  @To varchar(100) ,
  -- @Subject varchar(100)=" ",
   --@Body varchar(4000) =" "
