    Just tried using a distribution list containing 200 valid email addresses (from my contacts). Below is the message I keep receiving. Otherwise, VISTA Mail has been working fine for 18mos. Any suggestions how to get my email sent using this distribution list?

    ******
    The message could not be sent. The authentication setting might not be correct for your outgoing e-mail [SMTP] server. For help solving this problem, go to Help, search for "Troubleshoot Windows Mail", and read the "I'm having problems sending e-mail" section. If you need help determining the proper server settings, please contact your e-mail service provider.

    The rejected e-mail address was 'johnsonherby@gmail.com'. Subject 'St Marks Needs Your Support', Account: 'Brook New Crawford', Server: 'smtp-server.carolina.rr.com', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '421 Too many recipients', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 421, Error Number: 0x800CCC79

    ******

    Thanks, hcrawfor

    Hi

    Its likely you will need t chat to your ISP as many these days have been implementing blocks on users sending out that sort of number of emails, its to curb spam and malware in emails. They may have a limit on how many per session emails with same header/title that can be sent at once.
