4622.0. "MSExchange, is there a character limit for .dis lists?" by BIGQ::SILVA (http://www.ziplink.net/~glen/decplus/) Fri Apr 18 1997 09:56
Does Exchange mail have a limit to how many characters a distribution
list can have?
I made a distribution list, and it failed. I did it by mailing a vms
distribution list to exchange, opening it in Word, and did the following:
changed all carriage returns with a ; <---there is a space
I then copied it into an exchange distribution list I made. It then
went through and every address that wasn't in the internet format, it would ask
for a change. I used ELF to make the changes. And then saved it, and it failed.
I then did the same thing, but just used the internet addresses and
omitted the vms formatted addresses. It worked fine.
So I then did the same thing, but took SOME of the vms formatted
addresses and converted them with elf, and that worked. So I went and redid the
distribution list, and it failed.
The list has about 150 people on it. So...... is this too much for it
to handle?
