SYMPTOMS
When you send a message with a very large recipient list, you may receive a General Protection (GP) fault or the following non-delivery message from the System Administrator:

Your message did not reach some or all of the intended recipients.

Date submitted: 

Message title:

The following recipient(s) could not be reached:



Warning: one or more members of that group could not be located.

NOTE: When the above error occurs, the message may have been sent to some of the users.



CAUSE
The expansion of the To: list has resulted in a large number of users that cannot be handled by the client or the message transport.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in version 3.5 of the Microsoft Mail for Windows. A fix for this problem is in development, but has not been regression-tested and may be destabilizing in production environments.

Contact Microsoft Product Support Services for more information on the availability of this fix.
