Stuart,
Rather than dealing with Mr. Valentine's rude replies, you will find some
other posts dealing with distribution list limits for Outlook, including
links to Microsoft knowledge base articles. Here is the relevant information
in that post:
*****************
"Using Outlook, what is the limit to the number of addresses I can have in a
personal distribution list?"
http://kb.iu.edu/data/agvq.html
"Is there a limit on the size of a distribution list? "
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/i...butionlistsize
and:
You receive a "This distribution list has reached the maximum size for your
network e-mail server" error message when you try to add many items to a
contact distribution list in Outlook:

Maybe it helps.

You didn't waste anyone's time. I've run into this same issue, and I found
the answer in another post.
