Default Is there a limit to how big a distribution list can be?

Not in Outlook. The mail server imposes those limitations.

I have already posted a question about this subject, I have a distribution
list just over 100 reciepients, I get a system administrator message
saying,
452 there are too many recipients, is there a constriction on how many you
can send at once within Outlook?, I have been in contact with my server
and
there is no problem at there end.

Your question is for AOL. Size of DL's is controlled by the mail server,
not
by Outlook. DL's of this size are generally a very poor idea. I would
expect
almost every server to reject messages to that many recipients, and DL's
of
that size are very difficult to maintain.

I have made 3 DLs that are very big: 500, 800 and 1200 addresses. I will
be
using AOL through Outlook. I am on AOL's white list. Does this also
work
through Outlook?
