Distribution list Stuck in outbox, mutliple sends
Twice now I have sent a distribution list less than 100 contacts and it gets
stuck in the outbox and re-sends the email mutiple times, this last time receipents received the duplicated email 7 times. I quickly pull the cable to stop once I realize what is happening and them delete the original message. But I need to know how to prevent this from happeing again. I can not let it ever happen in the future. Note: In the past I have sent the same list successfully 3 times before. |

Distribution list Stuck in outbox, mutliple sends
Not usually an Outlook issue. Start by checking the limits your mail server
places on the number of recipients. In general DL's are a poor choice for grouping recipients. They are not reliable or robust and become corrupt frequently. Consider using Categories instead. Most of us do. -- Russ Valentine "Sweetangel" wrote in message ...

Are you scanning outgoing email with a virus scanner? That is a frequent
cause of duplicated messages. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com/ Outlook Tips by email: EMO - a weekly newsletter about Outlook and Exchange: New Poll: What type of email account is your main account? http://forums.slipstick.com/showthread.php?t=42402 "Sweetangel" wrote in message ...
