Opera Mail not sending to large group

Hello,

I am attempting to send an email newsletter via Opera Mail. When I send it to just myself and one other person, it works fine. When I use my full email list, it doesn't send - it gets stuck in the Outbox.

Any ideas what to do?

To how many persons are you tryinh to send it? If the number is too high then your mail provider may be blocking the message.

Also note that Opera Mail's to, cc and bcc fields have a text length limit. But, if you run into this, you'll know it because the send button will be broken.

You can check the outgoing log to see what the smtp server gives for an error. It most likely is a problem with the number of senders, especially if they're all bcc, which is often more restricted by smtp servers.

See https://www.google.com/search?q=bulk+email+solutions for workarounds.
