MS Office Forum / Outlook / General MS Outlook Questions / March 2008How many contacts will outlook allow???
Iam using Office 03 and need to add about 2000 contacts for a Legal e-alert email. So....... I need to find out how many contacts will outlook hold and what kind of impact will it have on my exchange server. You can have at least 65535 items in a folder so no problem there but your mail server may not like an item with 2000 contacts in the To/CC/BCC field(s). See if any of the tools here will help: http://www.slipstick.com/addins/mail.htm > Iam using Office 03 and need to add about 2000 contacts for a Legal > e-alert > email. So.......

Sending to that many people at one time, however, may be problematic. Best to use a mailmerge.

SignatureBrian Tillman I have one distribution list that will work fine and one does not and comes back with the error "No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient." I can email the address individually and they all go through. > Iam using Office 03 and need to add about 2000 contacts for a Legal e-alert > email. So.......

I have the same issue as Buckwheat, whereby i can send emails individually to everyone on a distribution list but when i come to send using the distribution list it comes back with error 'No transport provider was available for delivery to this recipient' It was fine last week so why would this happen now? Any ideas?
