Same as any other time you send to multiple recipients: Add each DL to the
To field. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hsvgal" wrote in message ... I want to send the same email message to multiple distribution lists. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks.

Okay, when I did that I received I received an undeliverable message saying
there were "too many recipients" for several of the email addresses.

So why didn't you include that tidbit with your question? Did you think we
could just read your mind? That is not an Outlook question or problem. Your mail service provider has set that restriction. Ask them what their limits are and how best to avoid them. Most Outlook users use mail merges instead of trying to send to more recipients than their provider allows. You cannot use a DL for a mail merge. -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hsvgal" wrote in message ...

It's never a bother if you would simply follow guidelines for asking
volunteers to answer your questions on their free time. Posting incomplete or inaccurate information wastes your time and ours: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=555375 -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "hsvgal" wrote in message ... Well excuse me!

Aren't most distribution lists fairly long, or you wouldn't bother to make it
a permanent list? I didn't think it was an unreasonable question. I am having similar issues with Outlook but if to ask a question here I need to understand all the correct terminology and appreciate every possible parameter then I don't feel this is the place to get help. Thanks anyway. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: It's never a bother if you would simply follow guidelines for asking volunteers to answer your questions on their free time.

Not if you're using Outlook. Distribution Lists in Outlook were a poorly
implemented afterthought that never worked well. Now they are obsolete. Most ISP's don't allow sending to more than an handful of recipients, so why should Outlook spend development effort for a feature that is already dead in the water? -- Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook] "Lea" wrote in message ...

Okay, well what do you recommend? I have a contact list of 290 addresses
that I need to send a regular newsletter to. Should I break the list into smaller pieces? Thanks. "Russ Valentine [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Not if you're using Outlook.
