PC Win: Sending to a Large Distribution List Fails (147041)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.2
- Microsoft Mail for Windows 3.5
This article was previously published under Q147041 SYMPTOMS
When you send a message with a very large recipient list, you may receive a
General Protection (GP) fault or the following non-delivery message from
the System Administrator:
Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.
Date submitted: <date and time you sent the mail>
Message title: <subject of message>
The following recipient(s) could not be reached:
<alias name of a group>(<address of the group>)
Warning: one or more members of that group could not be located.
NOTE: When the above error occurs, the message may have been sent to some
of the users.
CAUSE
The expansion of the To: list has resulted in a large number of users that
cannot be handled by the client or the message transport.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.5 of the
Microsoft Mail for Windows. A fix for this problem is in development, but
has not been regression-tested and may be destabilizing in production
environments.
Contact Microsoft Product Support Services for more information on the
availability of this fix.
