Too Many Recipients

My mailing list from my local community site has grown and I have realised some people are not getting my messages. They come back too many recipients, can someone tell me how to change the number of recipients or do I need to split the list which is around 200

    From what I've read, your ISP may have set a limit to the number of the same email you can send out to multiple recipients in one go (something to do with trying to keep spam down - an example).

    Contact your ISP to find out what their limit is. If they won't divulge what it is, you'll have to keep the numbers low - try sending to 25 or even to 10 recipients at a time. G
  • Thank you I tried splitting my mailing list into groups of 25 and they still come back. My ISP are saying it is to do with my AVG not them. I have the paid for version of AVG and looking through it I cannot see anything that says about limits on the numbers of emails sent. Help please.
  • Is email scanning enabled in AVG? If so, try disabling it.
