    I have an extensive list of customers Internet addresses that I have
    put into a distribution list, called @EDU.  The format for these names 
    from ALL-IN-1 is:	"[email protected]"@INTERNET
           		"[email protected]"@INTERNET
    
    This naming scheme seems to work fine when I send a message to a few
    addressees.  The problem lately is when I try to use @EDU with 60+ names
    on it.  This has worked in the past even though customers complained
    about having to read through the entore distribution list before
    getting to the message.
    
    I now get a message from ALL-IN-1 within 10 minutes stating:
    
    "ALL-IN-1 was unable to send your message off node posted on
    Message titled: DECnews for Education & Research.
    
    REASON: %EMD-I-SEND_COUNT_EXCE, SENDER re-try count exceeded
    
    Any local deliveries have been made"
    
    
    Are there any ALL-IN-1 rules about the number of Internet addressees
    that can be sent at one time?  
    
    Any other suggestions on how to fix this problem?
    
    Thanks...KC

| What has happened is that for some reason Message Router has not been able to aceept the message as built by ALL-IN-1. There should be info in the Mail Mgt Guide on how to track down the problem, but quickly: Manager will have had had a mail message showing the .NBS filenames; run mrnbsdmp on them; There should be error messages in oa$mti_err, and in mrerr.inf That should narrow down the cause of the problem considerably. btw, no there is no (intentional!) limit. grahame | |||||

| The "@INTERNET" syntax is probably just a nicety on your node which is expanded by Message Router into something like "@DECWRL@MRGATE" (Try MCR MRMAN then SHOW INTERNET) But that's all by-the-way; follow Grahame's suggestions in .1 to try and track down the problem. As long as "@INTERNET" is understood by your local Message Router, there's no reason why ALL-IN-1 should be unable to send the mail if other mail is working fine. Scott | |||||
