 * Hi,
 * I have an issue with Email Users when I want to notify my registered users about
   the post. The issue is that I cannot notify users if in that role there are more
   then 20 people. I can make a work arround creating more user roles, but that 
   is not very convenient.
 * Is this some special limitation or I something wrong.
 * Thansk for help.

 * There isn’t anything special about how Email Users extracts users from a role.
 * Have you tried setting the BCC limit to something less than 20 to see if that
   makes a difference?

 * I have tryed to set BCC to 100 and notify 23 registered users, but it failed.
   Talked with hosting provider… they also do not have any limitation. Only 100 
   email per hour. But thats OK with me.

 * Can you elaborate on how you know it failed?
 * I would suggest enabling DEBUG mode (it is an option on the Email Users Settings
   page) and take a look at the headers which are constructed. Does the BCC header
   contain all 23 target recipients? If not, then we need backtrack and figure out
   why some of the users aren’t being selected.
 * If all 23 intended recipients are present and the header looks correct, then 
   the problem is downstream.
 * Back to the BCC limit – I would suggest setting it to 10 and see if it works.
   In your case, setting the BCC limit to 10 will result in 3 email messages being
   sent:
    1. Recipients 1-10
    2. Recipients 11-20
    3. Recipients 21-23
 * The BCC limit doesn’t truncate your recipient list, it just breaks the sending
   process up into chunks to prevent header overflow. There are some servers which
   cannot handle it a very long header string and while 23 isn’t a lot by any means,
   it is hard to know if a header is getting truncated somewhere.

 * Hi,
 * as per your recommendation, I have limited BCC to 10 emails and it looks like
   the issues solved.
 * Thanks,
