Due to security policy my client is planning to stop the SQL mail service on the server, in that case will my SSIS mail task work?
Thanks.
Yes, your SSIS mail will continue to work.
SSIS mail tasks connect directly to the SMTP server to send messages via the SMTP connection defined in your SSIS package.
Send mail task in SSIS will be the best option to use and will have some restrictions but can send a formal mail without any delimiters,HTML tags by providing the SMTP server name

Microsoft is disabling basic authentication. Does this impact SSIS packages Send mail task or database emails? There are lot of SSIS packages in our organization. Email notifications are sending through Send Mail task or from SQL Server.
Incase Send Mail task or Database emails get impacted with this change, what will be the solution?
Consider I am a newbie while answering.
My understanding is since SSIS does not support basic authentication, there won't be any issue with SSIS send mail task or database emails.
Can some one explain me how to configure the send mail task is ssis 2012?
I don't where we need to assign our Mail password while configuring.
You specify the password when you set up the SMTP Connection Manager.
The MSDN page on SMTP Connection Manager has all the details.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms137684(v=sql.110).aspx
AFAIK, The out of the box Send Mail Task in SSIS only supports an SMTP Connection Manager.
Right click in the Connection Managers area and choose SMTP as the Type.
You will now be prompted to Enter the SMTP Mail Server connection details. The minimum required are the SMTP Server's address. The rest default to their default values. Ex: If you don't enter timeout, it defaults to 60000 = 60 seconds.
Once you enter the details and press OK, the ConnectionString property of the SMTP Connection Manager will be set (see example below)
It is a good idea / best practice to parameterize this ConnectionString property so you don't have to change code if the SMTP server info or connection details change at a later date.
I keep the SMTPConnectionString at the Project Level (not Package Level) so that it can be re-used across various packages that send emails.
If you need advanced control over this component, there is a 3rd party SSIS component provider that has something called Send Mail Task Plus. That lets you configure an email provider password and such, although I rarely see this need in the enterprise SSIS world.
I want to send the email using Send mail task, I have already tried using script task and it was successful

You have to setup a new smtp connection first: see this link for more info: ssis mail
I want to send email with and attachment using SSIS, and the below error occurs.

Below is my SMTP connection Manager and Send Mail Task, and the above error occurs..
Any help..
You need to provide authentication, GMail doesn't work as an open relay.
Also, you can't connect to GMail with Windows authentication, so you'll have to use a script component and do this in .Net if that has to be your mail server for this.
Here's someone who found & solved this already, even including the GMail part: http://kalyan-coldfusion.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/send-email-with-ssisdatabase-from-gmail.html
Better luck with your Googling in future :)
I am trying to set up my SSRS 2012 subscriptions and though I have used all the same details as I use in Database Mail I cannot get it to send out emails but I am not getting any error messages from the job.
The only difference I can see is under the Database Mail Configuration Wizard there is listed SMTP Authentication "Basic Authentication" details, are these needed to be put in the RSreportsever.config file and if so where??
Thanks Phil
SSRS can't do basic authentication like the SQL/Database Mail can. There is an article about setting up a virtual local SMTP service that SSRS can send. This virtual SMTP then forwards your emails to the real SMTP server-- which can use basic authentication. http://en.sql4you.info/?p=132
