sysmail_mailattachments (Transact-SQL)

Contains one row for each attachment submitted to Database Mail. Use this view when you want information about Database Mail attachments. To review all e-mails processed by Database Mail use sysmail_allitems (Transact-SQL).

Column name	Data type	Description
attachment_id	int	Identifier of the attachment.
mailitem_id	int	Identifier of the mail item that contained the attachment.
filename	nvarchar(520)	The file name of the attachment. When attach_query_result is 1 and query_attachment_filename is NULL, Database Mail creates an arbitrary filename.
filesize	int	The size of the attachment in bytes.
attachment	varbinary(max)	The content of the attachment.
last_mod_date	datetime	The date and time of the last modification of the row.
last_mod_user	sysname	The user who last modified the row.

Remarks

When troubleshooting Database Mail, use this view to see the properties of the attachments.

Attachments stored in the system tables can cause the msdb database to grow. Use sysmail_delete_mailitems_sp to delete mail items and their associated attachments. For more information, see How to: Create a SQL Server Agent Job to Archive Database Mail Messages and Event Logs.

Permissions

Granted to the sysadmin fixed server role and the DatabaseMailUserRole database role. When executed by a member of the sysadmin fixed server role, this view shows all attachments. All other users only see the attachments for messages that they submitted.
