Distribution List Limits

[Paddy Ryan]

Hi, I could find an answer to this for Outlook 2002 but not for Outlook
2003. Is the answer the same? We are using SBS 2003. The error is:

"The distribution list has reached the maximum size for your network e-mail
server. The new member could not be added."

List was at 132 members.

Not an Outlook question. These limits are set by the server, not Outlook. If
your sever hasn't changed, then I imagine the limit is still the same.

Paddy,
You can make the Outlook distribution list as big as you like. I have two
lists, one with just under 1,000 and the other has grown to 480. I have a
Commercial account, a fixed IP address, and a valid reverse DNS, and have a
Bulk Mail permit (from the ISP). My ISP's limit is 1,000 for any one message
and that is why I have the two. However, these large distributions can only
be made late at night.

Not an Outlook question. These limits are set by the server, not Outlook.
If your sever hasn't changed, then I imagine the limit is still the same.
