Problem: Can only send to one e-mail address at a time

I have a computer with Thunderbird installed. Version 1.5.0.7 is
installed and Thunderbird says there are no updates available.
Windows XP is the operating system and the computer is only about 3
months old. The problem only started about a week ago.

When sending an e-mail and selecting only one address the e-mails
deliver properly. However if more than one e-mail address is selected
none of the e-mails deliver.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

what are you seperating the addresses with?

if on the same line, use a comma ","

i.e. ,

I have separated them with commas, put them on separate too lines and
have still received the problem.

Okay, what exactly does the error message say?

No error messages. No e-mails bouncing back. The e-mails just never
deliver.

I e-mail one address and it works fine. If I send to multiple
addresses (that work fine when sent separately) then the e-mails do
not deliver.

What happens when you type the e-mail addresses in by hand?

Okay, test time:

Do you have multiple email addresses? Try sending to them, see if they
go thru.

And, to check on it further, send a message to yourself AND me
() with the subject [multi-send] and we shall
see what happens.

I have tried sending with some e-mails from the address book and some
that I have just typed in. There has not been a difference.

I have found I can send up to four e-mail addresses at one time
successfully. If I try more than four is when the problem arises.

I have been able to send from more than four from a different
computer(XP and latest version of Thunderbird) successfully. Both
computers are using the same SMTP server and settings.

I tried about an hour ago. I didn't recieve the messages to my
accounts. I sent you a follow-up e-mail to only your account about 15
minutes ago. Thanks for the assistance.

Your ISP evidently has implemented a spam-control policy: maximum four
recipients per message.
