limit number of messages sent in 1 session

[Andrew Zenz]

Hi All,

I feel kinda silly asking....

Does Outlook have a limit on the number of messages it sends in one
session/at one time?

I know that some ISP's can limit the number of messages sent (as an
anti-spam measure) and I also figured that since Outlook didn't like 3rd
party apps using it (you know the message that pops up when you try and sync
with a PDA sometimes) that it might have a 'feature' that limits messages
sent.

TIA

Andrew

I don't know of any. It should send all the messages in the Outbox.

it doesn't but if you need to throttle the number sent, there is at least
one addin that can slow down sends to prevent triggering the ISP's antispam
controls.
