Greetings,
I am having a problem with one of my departments sending mass emails (1,000+ users) and then getting rejections and SPAM warnings from other sites. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to send email like this and force Exchange to send a one-by-one stream of emails, or do you folks have any other strategies?
Much abliged...

How can you send a LARGE group of people an E-mail listing each person individually (in the To: field) rather then showing the entire distribution list?

We have used cut & paste to send an E-mail to the group as a blind carbon, but then eachperson does not have their name in the distribution.

We have a mainframe-based facility for mass E-mail distribution of dynamically generated lists (ex. 500 people with red hair ..., 350 managers in USA ..., etc.) but it's not a GUI interface.We've found mass 'dynamic' distributions are limited in Outlook 2000 with Exchange Server 5.5, as Exchange will only allow up to 160 Contact items in a distribution list that's contained within an Exchange store. Outlook 2000 is the first version that allows you to create distribution lists in the Contacts folder, so it's the first version to encounter this limitation.
