Default SMTP limit dedicated server

Hi,

I'm thinking about purchasing a Dedicate server from hostgator.

I've about 30k clients and I need to contact them often.

So I need to send lots of emails daily because this I need to know if the dedicated server has any smtp limit.

Thanks.

NO
Set the limits to what ever you want.

Yes, that is true, but you'll need to be careful with a 30K list. You will need to monitor your output and verify that you aren't being flagged as spam by AOLers. You still risk getting yourself blacklisted.

I can also add, if you try and send all 30k at once, your dedicated will come to a halt. So make sure you cut back on the amount you send all at once and batch them or the load on the server will max out.
