    what's the error ???
    it's a normal behaviour to get something saying that the email address used is not a good one, but is should be easily trapped in PL/SQL ...

    The mail server may not be configured to act as a "relay" - so you would get your internal mails but can't send to outside accounts. Please talk to your mail administrator - she/he would be able to confirm this.
