Pardon me for continuing not to address your specific question, but this seems like something that businesses would commonly run into and I'd be very surprised if there's not a way around this already. Is there really no way to have a group of more than 50? Have you tried creating distribution lists based on contact groups? If this is possible you could automatically add all contacts to one specific group. I really think there's a simple solution if you look into it, but I don't have outlook, I use Thunderbird. Are you able to use a plugin to perform the work or is that against your company's policies? I just don't see automating with COM being the cleanest / most robust approach, but if you really want to try it hopefully we can help if you run into any python-specific issues! -Luke _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
