This distribution list has reached the maximum size for your network.

I have a user that is trying to create a personal distribution list within her Outlook 2000 client address book. She is trying to add 232 users and she is getting this error message... This distribution list has reached the maximum size for your network server. Only 140 names will be added". Does anyone know what this means?
Thanks

I must say I have never heard of a cap for distro lists but give this a try; make several smaller distribution lists and add them all to one larger list.

See MS article Q238569 for info about this rather feeble limitation on the Exchange IS and for an even more feeble workaround.
