Due to compromised accounts, spam being sent via the University of Stuttgart and entries in blacklists, the limit of 1000 recipients per 24 hours and mail account applies to sending e-mails. A maximum of 500 recipients per email was set as the second limit.

The "0x80004005-0x000501" error message in Outlook may indicate that the sender has reached these limits.

If you need a larger number of destination addresses, please contact the mail support in good time.
