Sending Email with multiple recipients

[Guest]

I am using Outlook 2002. In the past I have been able to send email to a
group of 6 people using a group name or entering the addresses manually all
in the To: area. Lately when I try to send email to more than 3 recipients
the mail doesn't go through. I get no error message and no "undeliverable
mail" message. It appears to be sent but no one recieves the mail. All the
addresses are correct, I can send mail to each person individually, I can
also send to multiple recipients if I do no more than 3. It used to work
fine, I have no idea of what I did or what happened to make it act this way.

You possibly did nothing. It sounds like your provider might be placing this
restriction. Check with them.

Thanks I thought of that. SInce posting I went back and set up Outlook
Express (same provider). I'm able to send to 6 recipients on Outlook
Express... so I guess I just revert to that for my email.

I spoke to quickly... when i tried with Outlook Express it was with a
different provider.... so perhaps you are right. I will check it out with
them. THANKS!!!

Try a Gmail account if you get stuck for a provider.

Why don't you use an add-in for mail merge like Easy Mail Merge for Outlook?
It is easier to send an email with multiple recipients this way and you can
also pass some of the rules from your ISP. You can find out more at this
