Question

How many total recipients can I specify in the To/CC/BCC fields in an email sent through Office 365?

Overview

At times you may wish to send a single email to a large number of recipients at once. In order to safeguard the system from abuse, Microsoft has implemented limits on the number of recipients you can specify on each email you send.

Answer

When using Office 365 as the sending mail service, you may specify a maximum of 500 recipients per email.
