Sending mail to a group

I've got a list of contacts who I need to send an e-mail out to (update notification) so I set up a group with the contacts in and
added this to the BCC field, so everyone won't end up in everyone else's address books wrote the message and sent.  The server
however refused to send it and came up with the following message:
"Recipient not authorised [recipient rejected due to no authorised destination groups]"
Guessing this is some security feature built in to stop spammers/bulk e-mailers shooting e-mail out to large groups I tried adding
each individual contact into the BCC field rather than the group but still no luck.
Is there any way to simply send an e-mail to a group of people without Oulook/my ISP throwing a tantrum?  I really don't want to
have to write 50 odd e-mails every time something changes..
Cheers,

   Mike

Outlook imposes no such restriction.
Ask your ISP.
