Functions

I have a string argument in a stored procedure that returns a string
value. I would like to replace that string argument with a function.
Does anyone know what the syntax would be?
Here is an example:
exec sp_send_cdosysmail
'sqladmin@.mycompany.com','DBAeMailAddress@.mycompany.com','Subject Of
e-mail','Body of e-mail message'
I would like to replace DBAeMailAddress@.mycompany.com with a function.
I already have the function written and it does work successfully but
not with the function call from within the arguments for the stored
procedure.
If I can find a way to successfully implement this, I can change the
on-call DBA's name in the function instead of within every single
scheduled job.

declare a local variable assign a value to the variable (using the function
call) and then use that local variable in the parameter list?

function -> first letter of each word - capital

Hello
I'm looking for a ready to use user function which takes a string as a
argument and returns string containing fist letter of each word as capital.
example:
initail: sUN iS ShINIng
result: Sun Is Shining
The similar role in Oracle has function called INITCAP
