Unable to send email to group. Getting an error message about incorrect format of email address.

still having this problem - cannot even get a list of addresses in the group, have to recheck each one

very very bad, need help

I too am having this same problem and I cant seem to find any answers! Very very frustrating! Can someone PLEASE help me! I need to get these email sent ASAP!

Thanks!

Can someone guide me through the same process as OFSO and others. I too have a group I need to send monthly e-mails to, and every time I try and "send" I receive in red print that my address format of a particular address is wrong. When I try to remove it the message moves to another address and so on. This is so frustrating, and please if I receive a reply explain to me in detail what to do as I am not very computer savvy.

Thank you

I'm having the same error.  It did give a few letters of the email address that was a problem.  I deleted that email address and it then showed the next one, etc.  When I deleted from the first one to the end of my list, it worked fine.  I then sent a separate email to the dozen or so that I had to delete.  Could it be a problem with the size of my group?  None of the emails were formatted incorrectly and I used to use this group list without a problem.  I have 255 contacts in the list.  Should I break the list into two?  Please advise.
