Email Limits

System Information: Email Limits

 

To ensure a reliable and secure email experience for all users, Pronetsys PayGo applies rate-based limits on both incoming and outgoing messages. These safeguards help maintain service integrity and performance across our hosted email platform.


1. Email Limits Overview

  • Rate-Based Controls: Limits are measured over specific timeframes and apply to the number of messages or recipients.

  • Enforcement: If limits are exceeded, further delivery attempts may be deferred or rejected.

  • Automation and Spam: Automated email and spam are restricted under significantly stricter thresholds.

  • Right to Modify: Pronetsys PayGo reserves the right to adjust these limits at any time without prior notice to protect service quality.


2. Sending Restrictions: Domain Verification

 

To combat phishing and spoofing, Pronetsys PayGo enforces a domain verification check on outgoing mail.

  • Only domains associated with your customer account may be used for sending emails.

  • The system compares:

    • Authenticated User Address (used to log in)

    • SMTP MAIL FROM Address (used for message routing)

  • Both domains must belong to the same customer account. If not, the message will be rejected.

  • To support use cases like sending-only domains, you may add domain aliases to your primary domain within your account.

 

This policy significantly improves protection against spoofing and phishing, even where traditional DNS-based measures fall short.


3. Outgoing Mail Limit: 10,000 Recipients per Day

  • Daily Cap: Each user may send messages to a maximum of 10,000 recipients within a 24-hour calendar day (00:00:00 to 23:59:59).

  • Recipient-Based Counting:

    • Example: Sending 100 emails to 100 recipients each = 10,000 recipients.

    • Not based on message count, but total recipients.


4. Incoming Mail Limit: 400 Messages per 10 Minutes

 

To ensure fair system usage and prevent service degradation:

  • Each mailbox can receive a maximum of 400 messages within any 10-minute window.

  • If this limit is exceeded:

    • Additional messages are deferred, not rejected.

    • Most senders will automatically retry delivery, resulting in slight delays.

 

Examples of mailboxes impacted:

  • Diagnostic/monitoring systems

  • CRM or support platforms sending automated messages

  • Devices configured to email logs or alerts

 

For mailboxes expected to receive high message volumes, consider segmenting the load or contacting support for custom solutions.
