MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / October 2007Distribution List - sending
I am trying to send a Distribution List I have created to my colleagues - it will not drag from Contacts to the body of the email message. I cannot copy all and paste into the body either. I seem to be unable to do anything with it except use it as an email address. Try attaching it as an item to your e-mail message. If you use Outlook as your e-mail editor, go to Insert | Item, browse to your contact folder and then to the DL, and click Insert. If you use Word as your e-mail editor, the paperclip icon on the e-mail toolbar has an arrow on it -- click the arrow and you'll see the Item option there.

For example, if the Recipients have Outlook Express will it work? thanks, Ron > Try attaching it as an item to your e-mail message.

A DL must be send as an attachment to a Rich Text message and only another Outlook can receive Rich Text messages and do anything reasonable with them. SignatureBrian Tillman I'm trying to send a message to a distribution list and I get a error message : "Too many recipients" I have 120 contacts in my list. Is it too much ? and why ? There is a limit ? Thank you for a response as soon as possible. > I'm trying to send a message to a distribution list and I get a error > message >> "Too many recipients" > I have 120 contacts in my list.
