Finding Your Server's Email Relay Server Settings
Our server customers must send email using one of our relay servers. This prevents abuse of our network and helps ensure our customers don't get blacklisted for using the same network as a spammer.
For the most part, you do not need to worry about these settings unless something is not working or you want to use a different mail server daemon on your dedicated machine.
NOTE: Our dedicated servers have an outbound email limit of 1000 per day. If you need to send more than 1000 emails per day, contact customer support (more info).
To Find Your Server's Email Relay Server Settings
- Log in to your Account Manager.
- Click Servers.
- Next to the account you want to use, click Launch.
In the Account Summary area, next to SMTP Services your mail server name displays.
