Hey Deji... Remember the client side. :o) It is a personal DL and I believe 150-200 is the limit.
As for Server DLs (i.e. AD Groups), MS recommends that you stick to sizes of 500-1000 and if you need to go above that to nest them. I would say that with AD 2003 I would go to 1500[1] but from what I have seen in how things work with the queries and other items that I can't go too deeply in now including rule expansion of "from a DL" rules I would also say that smaller DLs that are nested is probably the way to go. joe [1] The issue breaks down to how many members are returned prior to ranging kicking in. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 21, 2005 3:40 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] OT: exchange max. dist. list size I don't have exact figures, but your numbers are unbelievably low. 200 max? I have DLs with 2300, and those are small. What gives you this impression? Are you using a tool that's barfing when expanding DLs with more than 200 membership?
