Limits
There is a 200 hourly email limit per domain this limit
is also applied towards mailman. 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 domain. 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 5,000 will require a semi
dedicated or dedicated hosting solution from us. Note:
dividing one large list into smaller lists to get below
this limit is not allowed.
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 500 emails
the server will try sending all 500 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 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 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.
5. Any mailling list MUST comply with all guidelines
set forth by the United States.
