Mail Limits
There is a 1000 hourly pop email limit per domain this limit is also applied
towards mailing lists. If you send over this amount in any hour most of the
e-mails will bounce back with a undeliverable error.
Many of our servers have a 60 pop checks per hour limit per email address.?
If you go over this you're likely to get a wrong password error message saying
login incorrect. Just wait an hour and it will automatically unlock you. to
prevent this from happening again make sure to disable auto checking or at least
set it to something higher such as 10 minutes.
Any mailing list larger than 2,000 will require a dedicated server solution
from us. Note: dividing one large list into smaller lists to get below this
limit is not allowed.
We have a maximum size of emails of 5MB and under, any email over 5MB will
be automatically rejected, please use your FTP to transfer big files !
Mailing Lists Rules
1. Anytime you're sending a message no matter how large your e-mail list is
you must throttle it.? We recommend you throttle it to at the very least sending
1 email every 6 seconds. If the mailing list software you're using does not
allow you to throttle you must switch to something else. We recommend phplist
which can be found in your control panel under fantastico. If you do not throttle
and you try sending let's say 1500 emails the server will try sending all 1500
in 1 second which is not possible. This will cause the server load to go very
high and for the entire server to be sluggish until this process is completed.
It is our job to keep the server up and running without being sluggish. Anyone
who causes the servers load to go high will be suspended and the process will
be terminated. If you choose not to throttle you will most likely be suspended
for crashing the server.
2. Any mailing list over 900 emails is only allowed to be sent to during off-peak
times to prevent high server loads. Off peak times qualify as all day Saturday
and Sunday, and 1am - 8 am eastern time M-F.
3. You are not allowed to mail to a mailing list you were given or purchased.
This is spamming because they never agreed to you personally sending them mail.
We do not care and how you justify it this is spam and will result in termination
of the offending account.
4. Any unsolicited e-mail being sent will result in termination of the offending
account. We take a zero tolerance stance against sending of unsolicited e-mail.
