Outlook problem sending 30 emails at a time.

[toplessta]

I am using the mail merge feature with a excel spreadsheet, and when i finish and go to sent is comes up with "Sending reported error (0x800C8105)"
I also get erros from my AntiVirus scanner. Some randomely go through also. I would say 10/35 get sent randomely.
Is there a way to make this stable and error free?

Trying to do a little mass-emailing from a spreadsheet/database are we?

Yes you're correct, I spent about 10 hours working on it and concluded its Nortons fault. Still a problem because Norton doesnt have a fix.

I could be wrong, but even if the users here have a solution, I doubt you are going to get much assistance. After all, why would they want to assist you in filling up their mailboxes with spam/crap?

[toplessta]

NO! You got it all wrong. I'm not SPAMing its for my business. They are contacts we get either from the contact form, or people we called and asked for theyre emails. www.barrsys.net is the site. Thanks!

My sincerest apologies for giving you a hard time then! Guess I am in a sarcastic and cynical mood today ( I know I know, whats so different about that?).... Anyway, I wish I had a solution for you, but unfortunately I do not.

A quick search of google on the error only turned up one item detailing it as a known issue with Outlook after applying a patch:

You didn't mention what version of Outlook or what Operating System you are running either which would be helpful.... it might not necessarily be Norton's fault.

There is this article on the MS website that deals with very similar issues:

Good call. Office update fixed the problem. Thanks!
