Question re sending bulk emails

#1 Post by BikerGran » Wed Oct 05, 2011 10:42 pm

I'm now the contact for our club and I want to send the same email to all club members but I'm having no success because it keeps telling me there are too many recipients.

How can I tell how many emaill addresses I can send to at one go? And is there any way of increaing the number? Using Outlook Express.

I think the limit is 100 recipients at a time....

set up mail groups though - so you can bulk send say to 25 people at a time....


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Nd use the bcc field when sending it helps hide addresses from being harvested
For the avoidance of doubt and for the benefit of my wife, not everything I may say here will be absolutely true I may on ocassion embellish a little for effect.
That said when it comes to motorbikes, I like to ride side saddle with a nice frock

I seem to be only able to send 20.

Mail groups? Quoi?
