I am trying to help someone email potential clients, and although he has over
1000 addresses to mail to, he said he only seems to be able to send to about
300 at one time. He is using Outlook 2003. Appreciate any ideas.
Thanks

Not an Outlook problem. His ISP is limiting the number of recipients.

That was what he thought. Thanks for clearing that up!

I am not an outlook expert but I ran into to this 300 limit at work where
someone said they sent a note out to a large list and others did not receive.
These were all internal addresses. If you are working in a large
corporation I think this has to do with persission to send large emails. I
would contact your exchange admin before you call the isp. Hope this helps.

Why not to send personal messages for all those contacts with a single
recepient in each message?

The inbound, "native" Mail Merge option of Microsoft Word and Publisher (XP
and later) will allow you to send your projects (documents) directly from
this Office component. The possibility to send individual messages is
implemented there - since the message is copied for every single recipient.
Mail Merge feature allows also using different contact bases (Outlook, Excel,
Access, text documents, etc.), and various macros.

If you need to extend some regular mail merge possibilities - you will be
able to use MAPILab add-in 'Mail Merge Toolkit'. It integrates into the
"native" feature, and allows to perform fully functional mailing from Word
and Publisher based on data from Outlook and Excel:

I could also advice you to look at MAPILab 'Send Personally for Outlook'
add-in: using this programme, you can use distribution lists from your
Outlook Contacts and choose contacts from your Outlook base. The add-in will
prepare individual messages for every single recipient from the list and
place all messages into your Outbox. There, they will be processed and sent
by the regular Outlook means.

He has found that the ISP is not the problem. We need to look at the
software, and technic. Thanks for your advice.

The fact remains that Outlook has no known limit on the number of recipients
you can specify.
