How to Send Emails:

Setting up SMTP Relay simply involves entering our SMTP server details into the settings of your email software (e.g. Outlook).

Will SMTP Relay work even if port 25 is blocked?

Yes – we are open on different SMTP ports (25, 80, 587, 2525, 8025). We recommend using port 2525, which is open from most locations. Try a different port number if port 2525 is blocked at your location.

TLS is available on the same ports, and SSL is available on ports 465 and 8465.

Can attachments be sent?

Send any attachments, up to 50MB per email.

Mailing rules for lists larger than 100:

  • Lists must be 100% opted-in. This means that you must have obtained the permission of your recipients to send them emails. Examples of lists that are not allowed are purchased lists, email addresses scoured from the internet, and marketing leads.
  • In addition, lists must be up-to-date, and have had emails sent to them recently (within the previous three months). We closely monitor the percentage of bouncing/invalid email addresses and take action where necessary.
  • An opt-out (unsubscribe) link must be placed at the bottom of each email which will allow the recipients to immediately remove themselves from the list.
  • Emails must not contain content related to the industries mentioned in the terms of service.

Are SPF records and DKIM included?

These are handled automatically with the addition of a few simple DNS records. We let you know exactly how these records should appear, directly from your Sender Domains page.

When should dedicated IP's be considered?

If your account has an allowance of at least 100,000 emails per month, we automatically assign a dedicated IP address to you. Below this email volume, a shared IP address is actually better for email delivery, as you may not be sending a consistent enough volume of emails for recipient ESPs (like Gmail) to judge your reputation.

Is SMTP Relay Authenticated and Secure?

All methods of authentication and security (TLS/SSL) is supported used by the major email providers.
