Distribution lists
How else can I send mass email distributions at once without using a
distribution list? -- Thanks, HD "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Those limits are set my the mail server, not Outlook. DL's are a very poor choice for sending to that many recipients. They become corrupt too easily and are nearly impossible to repair at that size. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Regin" wrote in message ... I have 453 contacts in my list and it was kicked back with "too many recipients" Does anyone know the maximum number?

Your mail router would probably choke before you reach Outlook's limit. -- Brian Tillman

Distribution lists
Mail merge creates one message for each entry. Hardly "mass email
distributions at once..." It does take only one, action on the part of the sender, but if there are hundreds or thousands it will take a long time. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...
