Hi,
I am a new user of Outlook 2000. I have set up a distribution list but when I tried to send an email, I get a System Administrator message that says No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient. What does that mean? Thanks-- tweeks |

Most likely that you have a corrupt address in the DL.
Are all your other messages sent correctly? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "tweeks" wrote in message ... Hi, I am a new user of Outlook 2000.

Yes, all my other messages are sent correctly. What should I do to correct
this? I noticed in a lot of the other discussions you suggest categories instead of DL. Where exactly to I specific the category? I did not add the email addresses to my contact list, b/c I didn't have names associated with them. I just added the email addresses to the DL by clicking add new member. I don't want these in my contact list. -- tweeks "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Most likely that you have a corrupt address in the DL.

DL's are notoriously unreliable, especially ones created in this way because
you will receive no warning if you enter an invalid address. You can examine each entry and make sure the address is both valid and resolved. Here is the way to use Categories in lieu of DL's: http://www.outlook-tips.net/archives/2003/20030730.htm -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "tweeks" wrote in message ...

Hi, I get the this same error message for EVERY email I send (No transport
provider was available for delivery to this recipient.) - and I am not using DLs. I have to resend every message, sometimes several times, before it eventally gets sent. This is driving me bonkers!

Then you should probably share some relevant information if you want help.
There is none here. The minimum would include Outlook version, information store, mail transport type, and recipient selection method. Outlook is telling you it can't recognize the electronic address. Only you could have a clue why that would occur. You can see your Contact data. We can't. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "eirehead" wrote in message ...

Thanks for the tips. I'll give them a try. The specific error message that
I received after setting up a Distribution List and attempting to test it was: "An unexpected error has occurred." -- Senior Runner "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: DL's are notoriously unreliable, especially ones created in this way because you will receive no warning if you enter an invalid address.
