all or none?

[Guest]

hi,

Outlook xp (POP3)

Send email to a locally created distribution list, and even if only one of
the recipient addresses is incorrect NO ONE receives the mail. (Mail is
bounced with "No transport provider was available for delivery to this
recipient.") Is this the normal course of events? I would have expected that
only the invalid recipients are bounced to me, and the correct recipients get
the message. My list has over 100 recipients and there's no way I can verify
all of them. Other email clients I've used do not function in this manner.

Thanks

Noel

I've read of that issue in several messages here and, while I haven't seen
an explicit solution, you might consider using Wordmail Merge instead of a
DL.
