Hi,

Been having this problem for about 6 months now so
hopefully someone can help as it's so annoying.

Whilst trying to send a single e-mail to more than 5
people then it sends to five people fine but all the rest
it fails and I get the below error. I am using Yahoo mail
on AOL ISP.


Your message did not reach some or all of the intended
recipients.

So WHO is sending your this NDR (non-delivery report) e-mail? Yahoo
Mail, maybe? Well, that means Yahoo Mail doesn't let you send a message
to more than 5 recipients. That's THEIR limit (and probably because you
are using their freebie webmail account whereas their paid-for premium
account that also permits access to their SMTP and POP3 mail servers
*may* allow more than 5 recipients per message). It is very likely an
anti-spam quota to limit their users, especially for their freebie
accounts, from spewing out lots of messages. ISP's providing e-mail
service usually limit non-business accounts to a maximum of 25 or 50
recipients per message (and why I mentioned Yahoo's premium mail service
since you then get access to their mail servers instead of having to use
their webmail interface so maybe you also get a higher
max-recipients-per-message quota).
 
I am having the same problems as some of the other people. When I send e-mail
to more than 5 recipients I receive:

452.4.5.3 Too many recipients

I have contacted my email server (Sitemail) and they say they cannot
duplicate the problem and I should be able to send it out to up to 50
recipients at one time.

When I go directly to Sitemail, I can send email to a bunch of recipients
with no problem. Also, when I use my AOL account, I can also send email to a
bunch of recipients.

Can anyone help?

No need to post so many times. Once is enough.
