how do I change the setting for number of recipients allowed?

[GL at DCL]

I often send messages to a large number of recipients and sometimes get a
message from "systems administrator" that says "Your message did not reach
some or all of the intended recipients .... to many recipients".

Hi GL at DCL,

how do you sent this emails? All contacts in the "To" filed or in the CC/BCC
field or in a Distribution List?

Often "Providers" or Mail servers allow only 25 receipients or other
limitations.

Try "Mail Merge with Outlook" to send the same email to several users. This
will send for every receipients an own seperate Email.

Thanks Oliver

I used BCC. I didn't want to spend time setting up mail merge ..... my
previous version (2003) used to give the option where max recipients was
large to say that it was ok to send, Outlook 2007 doesn't do that and I can't
find anything that talks about the max no permitted or how to override this
......

Outlook has no limit on the number of recipients you can have. Your mail
provider, however, does. Contact them.
