Hi all,

I am trying to use the "MailTo:" function in javascript to do a mass mailing on a client side email program (Outlook). Somehow, when I pass the string of email addresses to the location.href object, it only takes up to 10 addresses and ignores the rest when the string gets passed to the "To:" field in the Outlook email address window. I know you can set up a form and use VBScript and a MAPI object to get around this problem, but this solution is not really flexible, so I was wondering if there's another workaround using Javascript...

I appreciate any help and advice on this matter!

I don't think there is any way around that limit. Tracy Dryden
