MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / August 2007distribution lists and outlook
I am trying to send an email to my distribution list. It only has about 100 contacts. The email is not being delivered, it shows that it was sent, it is not in outbox, but nobody is receiving it. Is there a maximum number of contacts per email? Your email server might be imposing restrictions. Try smaller DL's and check with them.

I have send emails using same distribution list through Comcast webmail. I never had a problem until recently. The dl was created in Outlook and I am not on any exchange. Do you have any other suggestions? Thanks for your help. > Server does support. I have send emails using same distribution list > through Comcast webmail. I never had a problem until recently.

If the message moved from your Outbox to your Sent Items folder, then your mail server accepted the mesage and it's now out of Outlook's "hands". It is a problem on your ISP's server. Sending my webmail and sending by an SMTP client are completely unrelated and the former working has nothing to do with the latter. SignatureBrian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] > > Server does support.

What I would do it enable diagnostic logging and if it contains evidence that the server accepted the message, I would show it in their face as proof they have a problem and they won't be able to argue with it.
