To clarify, you're talking about Outlook contact lists.  It's an Outlook
limitation.  Just break the list in half (say, A-L and M-Z) and make one
list that contains the two halves, okay?

Still, huge contact lists, even if segmented as I suggested, are a bad idea
because they always get expanded in the message header making even tiny
messages become large.

Subject: Distribution list limit

Have just run into a problem with a distribution list someone created in
their mailbox that when they try to add more people to the list they get an
error saying the distribution list is too large for the server. In searching
google I find the article below. Does anyone know if this limit still exists
with Outlook 2003 and Exchange 2003 or know a way around it other than
creating multiple lists.

We can now have 13TB pst files but the sky will fall if you put too many
people in a distribution list.
