Max. size of email address list with mailto: ?

I'm experiencing problems with a large Bcc: email address list.  I can't use PHP mail() right now, and I'm not sure I'll be able to in the future, so I'm trying to make my code work with HTML mailto:.  I'm finding that I can generate an email message in MS Outlook IF my Bcc: list is about 90 emails long.  Anything longer than that, and the email will not generate, and I get no error message.  I'm not sure if there is a max. number of email addresses, or a max. number of characters.  I can MANUALLY cut and paste a list of 300+ email addresses into the Bcc: field in the email message, but I need to generate this email message via code.  My code looks something like this:

 

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?bcc=<? echo $emailBCCList ?>">Generate Email with HTML mailto:</a>

 

$emailBCCList = '[email protected],[email protected],[email protected],etc.'

 

I'll need to send out a single email that has approx. 300 or more Bcc: email addresses as part of a large invitation (this is NOT spam; these individuals have asked to be invited).

 

Can anyone ease my troubled mind?
