I am trying to help someone email potential clients, and although he has over
1000 addresses to mail to, he said he only seems to be able to send to about 300 at one time. He is using Outlook 2003. Appreciate any ideas. Thanks

I am not an outlook expert but I ran into to this 300 limit at work where
someone said they sent a note out to a large list and others did not receive. These were all internal addresses. If you are working in a large corporation I think this has to do with persission to send large emails. I would contact your exchange admin before you call the isp. Hope this helps.

Why not to send personal messages for all those contacts with a single
recepient in each message? The inbound, "native" Mail Merge option of Microsoft Word and Publisher (XP and later) will allow you to send your projects (documents) directly from this Office component. The possibility to send individual messages is implemented there - since the message is copied for every single recipient. Mail Merge feature allows also using different contact bases (Outlook, Excel, Access, text documents, etc.), and various macros. If you need to extend some regular mail merge possibilities - you will be able to use MAPILab add-in 'Mail Merge Toolkit'. It integrates into the "native" feature, and allows to perform fully functional mailing from Word and Publisher based on data from Outlook and Excel: http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/mail_merge/ I could also advice you to look at MAPILab 'Send Personally for Outlook' add-in: using this programme, you can use distribution lists from your Outlook Contacts and choose contacts from your Outlook base. The add-in will prepare individual messages for every single recipient from the list and place all messages into your Outbox. There, they will be processed and sent by the regular Outlook means. http://www.mapilab.com/outlook/send_personally/ -- Nick Kharchenko, MAPILab Ltd.

He has found that the ISP is not the problem. We need to look at the
software, and technic. Thanks for your advice.
