I have created a group address list with 55 recipients but the system tells me the message cannot be sent to this number of people because there are too many recipients. What is the limit to the number of recipients in a group address list? The only way I can see around the problem is to creat a number of address lists but this is a drag because I will have to retype the message for each address list. This might not be so bad if I could do something like copy and paste the message to be addressed to each list- but I do not seem to be ableto do this.

What is the limit to the number of recipients in a group address list?

There appears to be a limit of approximately 60 addresses when sending messages if you enter each address separately. However, if you use lists (mail distribution lists) for most of the addresses any limit is imposed by whatever SMTP server you use. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Thunderbird_:_FAQs_:_Create_Mailing_List
