Maximum users in Outlook Distribution List?

[Jeff]

Hi,

We're running Exchange Server 2003 with Outlook 2003 client.

One user only has about 100 contacts in a distribution list he created
in his contacts, and now when he tries to add more users he gets the
following message:
"The distribution list has reached the maximum size for your network
e-mail server. The new member could not be added."


I have not set any distribution list limits anywhere that I'm aware of.
Did I miss something? Is there an inherent limit to the number of
users you can put in a local DL in Outlook 2003?


Thanks!!!

Yes there is a limit.

That's the max, around 100-120. You can't change it.
