Tom,
Do ALL of your Lists have complete email addresses for each user? If not,
then please make it so.
If your list files have been 'damaged', that can cause a similiar problem.
Check each file VERY carefully, looking for spaces that do not belong. Each
line should have ONLY 1 email address (User.txt has email address and
username per line).
If you could figure out which list is the cause of your trouble, then you
would reduce the work needed to find/fix the problem. It would not hurt to
remove any 'bad' addresses on each list as these will only serve to delay
your mailings and make IMail work harder and longer to get the job done.
If you are using a Group Alias that has more than 50 email addresses (again
should be complete address!), then you need to change that to a List,
instead.
