Problem: We need to send email to multiple recipients that are not static and will be changing. Solution: Below is how our control flow will look   Step1. First we will create a table and populate the table with Emails create table EmailRecipient ( ID int identity(1,1) ,Emails varchar(100) ,ISSend bit )   insert EmailRecipient values ('nehaa@devtechie.com',1) insert EmailRecipient values ('anoop@devtechie.com',1) insert EmailRecipient values ('ankit@devtechie.com',0) Step 2. Variables: We will create two variables as shown below Step 3. We will start configuring components in the control flow starting with Execute SQL Task. Create an OLE DB connection manager to be included here. Resultset: Full result set   Step 3. Configure Foreach Loop Container as shown below Step 4: Configure Script Task   Below will be the one line code inside Script task public void Main() { // TODO: Add your code here   Dts.Variables["ToLine"].Value = Dts.Variables["ToLine"].Value + "; " + Dts.Variables["TempString"].Value; Dts.TaskResult = (int)ScriptResults.Success; } After including SMTP Connection Manager to the project, configure Send Mail Task Since the recepients to whom email will be sent to are configured in Script Task, ToLine will be mapped to the variable

Packages help in executing many different tasks at once and there are times when there are functionality requirement where package needs to run on a particular event invoked by the end user and we want to handle this by calling a stored procedure.
