Unable to send more mail to more than 50 recipients at once...

[J Spencer]

I send a couple of small e-mail newsletters out to
subscribers. Last week, I was able to send these e-mails
through Outlook 2000, in blocks of up to 500 addresses in
the BCC field. This week, when I tried that, the e-mail
was never sent and just sat in my Out Box until eventually
telling me that there is a limit of 50 recipients per e-
mail message.

I recently implemented the "critical updates" from MS for
Windows XP Pro & Office. The question I have is, why did
the allowable number of recipients change overnight, and
is there any way to return it to it's previous state?

Please send an e-mail copy of any replies to this to me at
(e-mail address removed)

Thanks very much for any and all help!

Outlook doesn't limit the number of recipients for a single mail message;
it's more likely your ISP doing this. Contact them to see what the limit
is. Perhaps they lowered the limit since your message was sent last week.
