How to set daily sending limit for your email account

This article will teach you how to set daily sending limits for your email accounts in our cold email software. It also provides information on the daily sending limits of popular email providers.

Snov.io sends emails through your email provider’s server after you connect your email accounts.

Set the daily sending limit

To view daily metrics for connected mailboxes, open Email Accounts page.

Snov.io allows you to connect unlimited email accounts and send unlimited follow-ups to prospects. The total number of emails you can send per day depends on the daily limits set by your email provider for your email account.

The Sent metric indicates the total number of emails you have sent through Snov.io on that particular day (excluding warm-up emails).

The Limit metric indicates the daily limit set for that particular email account.

You can control the number of emails your email account sends per day from its settings.

Click on the Edit icon next to the required mailbox. Find Optional settings section and open the Daily sending limit tab.

Enter the desired limit in the Messages per day box. This helps you stay within the limits set by your email provider. Remember, your actual limits are set by your email provider, not Snov.io.

When your account reaches its limit, Snov.io will pause sending emails from any campaigns using that account. Sending will resume once the limit resets or your sending schedule allows. Keep in mind, daily limits reset at midnight UTC, not according to your account’s timezone.

The limits below are general recommendations for email providers supported for connection by Snov.io. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, check the official documentation of your email provider.

Your email provider limits the number of emails you can send daily. If you exceed this limit by setting a higher daily limit in the settings, your provider may temporarily suspend your email account.

The exact number of emails you can send daily depends on factors like your account age, past sending activity, and sender reputation.

Increase daily sending limit safely

For new accounts or accounts that haven’t been used for campaigns, it’s best to set daily sending limits to no more than 50–100 emails. If you want to increase these limits, do so gradually to avoid any restrictions from your provider.

Here’s how Snov.io helps you to improve your sender performance:

• Grow sender reputation

Your email activity history and sender reputation are crucial factors for your limits. Snov.io’s Email Warm-up helps prepare your accounts to send more emails.

Remember: your provider includes all emails sent by your account toward the daily limit. If your account is in the warm-up, it’s best to lower the daily limit in your settings to cover the email usage during warm-up.

• Increase campaign volume safely

To increase your overall daily sending limit, connect multiple email accounts and add them to rotation in campaign. This helps distribute sending across multiple sender accounts, while staying within recommended daily limits.

• Keep your email senders in good technical condition

You can check domain health in account settings and add DNS records if necessary.

• Monitor email placement and deliverability

Run regular deliverability tests to receive personalized reports with detected issues and advice on how to fix them.
