I have a similar question. I am playing with alias and list config via
the web interface. When creating an alias with many names it says
"destination length limited to 1024 characters" is it talking about the
list file?
Ipswitch says there is no longer a 50 address limit in an alias, but is
that a bad way to create a distribution list? I'm trying to give my
users the easiest way to create DLs, I'm afraid the list function would
confuse them.
Suggestions?

Brian,
Indeed, that 255 character limit has been lifted in v7.03, and our
testing has concluded that it works as it should with longer lists of
recipients. We're putting the finishing touches on KillerHotMail hotfix
v2.0.6 and ClassicWebMail hotfix v2.0.2, which will include a
configurable length limit for the recipient fields, so you can decide
the limit for your users.
Regards,
Ron
