Mailing lists allow you to send emails to multiple recipients in one go. This feature is very useful when you need to send a newsletter or another update to a group of people.
NOTE: In order to prevent spam sending on servers we have implemented the following outgoing limits for our shared packages (so, if you have a mailing list with 20 recipients, 20 emails will be sent out):
- Value, Professional, Reseller plans – no more than 200 emails per hour per domain
- Ultimate plan – no more that 500 emails per hour per domain
- Business SSD plan – no more than 1000 emails per hour per domain.
