Don't do it from the sql side, do it from your code side.

Thanks for helping out RyanDev. Any specific reasons for not doing it from the sql server side?

Because you have limited access to sql. In code you can do anything. And SQL is a database, not the best place to be doing business logic like emails, even though it can.
