I have created a group of 54 people to contact regularly. I could do this
under Outlook Express but am now told by Windows Mail that there is a
restriction on the size of a group. What is the size restriction and how do
I overcome it as others do with me. Thanks
 
I don't know of a size limit to groups.
There is a restriction of 4k for a signature file.

What is the exact error?
 
server response 45 #4.5.3 Too many recipients Port 25 server error 452 error
number 0x800ccc79
 
Can you please post the entire message?

Have you been able to send to all of these recipients before, using the same
email provider? Some providers have limits on how many can be sent at a
time, or within a certain period.

Can you send messages to individual recipients?
 
Here is entire message

The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be
correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this
problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the
"I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining
the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.

The rejected e-mail address was '(e-mail address removed)'. Subject '', Account:

Response: '452 #4.5.3 Too many recipients.', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,
Server Error: 452, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

Yes I can send to individuals and to smaller groups from the same full
listing - just not the full group.
Thanks

This is not an email client issue. Your ISP, Tiscali is limiting the number of recipients.

The error is from the email server at Tiscali, not from Windows Mail.
You need to check with them to see what their limit is for the number of
recipients.
I couldn't find any info on their webpage.
