Service descriptions
  • The SMTP server is used to send emails when connecting to our Email servers via a third-party device (Outlook, Apple Mail, iPhone, Thunderbird)
  • The Webmail service is the service customers use when logging into their online email portal
  • The Cloud Hosting Smarthost service is the service customers use when sending emails from our Cloud Hosting website servers (such as when online contact forms are used)
What happens if you reach the hourly/daily email sending limit Depending on the service you are using, you will get one of two types of messages if you try to send out more emails than the server allows you to. The error messages look like this:
Hosting TypeError Message
cPanel Hosting550 “Daily limit has been exceeded for [email address]“
Cloud HostingThere was an error sending your message: Failed to send data [SMTP: Invalid response code received from server (code: 550, response: Administrative prohibition)]
If you get one of these error messages when sending out emails, it means you’ve hit your email sending limit. If you believe this is an error, or if you require further assistance, please contact our support team.
