Most ISPs limit the number of recipients of one (1) message to 50, 25 or
less, Adela.

Response: '452 #4.5.3 Too many recipients.'

452 isn't pointing to the number of recipients.

MY ORIGINAL PROBLEM: At least one of my 3 identities hasn't been sending
out
msgs at all with or without attachments for the last 2 months! They stay
forever in the outbox. I've been at forums and tried just about
EVERYTHING!
I get this error msg:

The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected
by the server. The rejected e-mail address was @cs.com'. Subject 'Fw:
BRAVO
JILL ROBINSON for GREAT SYMPOSIUM to HELP CHINESE CATS/DOGS!!!!!!!!!',
Account: 'pop.rcn.com', Server: 'smtp.rcn.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server
, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,
Server Error: 452, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

It says "452 too many" but my biggest emailing is of only 230 recipients.
I
split this amount but I got same error. The first part of the msg doesn't
apply. The earlier error msgs 0x800CCC79 included this "should be up to
400" or something to that effect, which means they allowed up to 400, yet
my 230 or even half of it didn't get sent out either. Seems they've
changed it!!! I'm very puzzled and no one is taking responsibility It's
impossible to contact direclty Microsoft.
