Select your Contacts, on the menu bar select Action - New Distribution List.
 
The question being i can get them in the list but it will not complete as the
ditribution list has reached the maximum size of the network email server no
new members could be added
thus the question is how do i add 200 recipients into 1 dl
 
You are not asking an Outlook question. Outlook sets no such limits. Your
mail server does. Ask your mail server administrator. And try posting clear
questions when you ask others to help you in a newsgroup. Leaving out the
details you did just wastes everyone's time.
 
Stuart,
Rather than dealing with Mr. Valentine's rude replies, you will find some
other posts dealing with distribution list limits for Outlook, including
links to Microsoft knowledge base articles. Here is the relevant information
in that post:
*****************
"Using Outlook, what is the limit to the number of addresses I can have in a
personal distribution list?"
http://kb.iu.edu/data/agvq.html

"Is there a limit on the size of a distribution list? "
http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/services/.../staffemail/faqs/project/distributionlistsize

and:

You receive a "This distribution list has reached the maximum size for your
network e-mail server" error message when you try to add many items to a
contact distribution list in Outlook:

Maybe it helps.

You didn't waste anyone's time. I've run into this same issue, and I found
the answer in another post.

As an FYI, Outlook 2007 SP2 eliminates the limit in Outlook. ISPs may still
block users from sending to a large # of people at once, but Outlook 2007
SP2 will let you try. :0
