Great Bruce
Another wizard I will never open again because I now have the perfect script to replace it!
I just added [cmdletbinding()] and the server name as a param.
Now working on a script to create operators.
thank you very much.

Glad you liked it. Here's what I use for operators.
# Configure the SQL Agent to use dbMail and add operators .
$sqlSrvObject.JobServer.AgentMailType = 'DatabaseMail'
$sqlSrvObject.JobServer.DatabaseMailProfile = $yourProfileNameHere
$o = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Agent.Operator($sqlSrvObject.JobServer, 'YourOperatorNameYere')
$o.EmailAddress = 'mailTo@yourDomain.tld'
$o.Create()
# or
$o = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Agent.Operator($sqlSrvObject.JobServer, $operatorNameHere)
$o.EmailAddress = $yourMailToAddressHere
$o.Create()
$sqlSrvObject.JobServer.Alter()
I haven't parameterized either since I don't have to set up mail or add operators too often, usually just when doing a new install.

That 's much easier than I expected.
I found a T-sql script, but I prefer the Powershell way.
I added those 4 lines as Step 10 in the Database Mail setup script, since I always need the 'helpdesk' operator whenever I install database mail.
Thanks again!
