Hello,
We're migration from a third-party mailsystem to Outlook 2003 with
Exchange 2003. In the old system, one departmental mailbox had
hundreds of large distribution lists, many of which were made-up of
several smaller distribution lists.
The main use of the mailbox is to receive news-alerts and distribute
them to the various lists depending on the topic. Nothing to do with
email marketing campaigns, it's a govt environment.
Because of the limits on the number of members of a distribution list
in Outlook 2003, we've had to migrate the distribution lists to
categories. This isn't very convenient for the users and overall it's
looking like Outlook alone isn't designed for this.
Can anyone suggest an alternative, e.g., Outlook with or without
Sharepoint, or Outlook with Business Contact Manager? We could
possible upgrade just this mailbox to Outlook 2007, where there's no
limit on the number of distribution list members, but we're still not
convinced that Outlook alone would be a good-enough long-term
solution.
Thanks for any advice,
- Alan.
