I mailed a message to over 100 contacts that are in 12 different distribution lists. My sent box shows that it sent, but nobody received the message. This happened yesterday and today, two different messages, but to the same groups. None bounced back, so does anybody know how to correct this?

Turn on logging in the e-mail client. Then after sending your
e-mail(s), check the log. If it shows you connected okay to your ISP's
SMTP server and it accepted the data in the DATA command and the session
ended okay, then you need to contact your ISP and find out why they are
batching e-mails up so they don't get sent out right away or why e-mail
you sent hours ago has gone missing. The log will be your proof that
the ISP actually accepted your e-mails.
 
What version of Outlook do you have? What sort of email account(s)?
