.DISTRIBUTION LISTS

[Guest]

I have a distribution list of about 125 contacts, when I send an e-mail out
to the list, I get an error message.... 452 too many recipients...and it list
the last maybe 50 contacts in the list? Is there a limit as to how many
contacts I can have in a distribution list?

Is there a limit to the number of recipients your SMTP allows? While there
can be a limit to the number of names in a DL, the SMTP often limits the
number too, in an attempt to prevent spam.

Since a 452 error os a server-side error, it is your SMTP server that is
limiting the number of receipients you can have, not Outlook.
