Lunarpages shared hosting plan have email sending limit. Same does any other shared hosting, there is always a daily sending limit and hourly sending limit. This limit is in place for limiting user email sending, thus there is always enough resource for everyone. And also an effective way to prevent spam too.
Lunarpages email daily limit is as following:
- 400 emails per hour
Lunarpages is with very high email sending limits. 400 emails per hour and that will be 9600 email per day. Bluehost and hostgator is giving below 5000 email daily. And lunarpages is giving twice times more email sending limits to users. That is a great advantage when you thinking to host online forums here, as usually you will need to email informing members on new posting, or posting reply. 9600 emails is great is you look forward to send out newsletter to your subscriber as well.
To fully using the 9,600 emails and at the same time avoiding the 400 hourly limits, you need to have the PHP script that fetch 400 emails from database, and send out emails. Using the crons job, schedule the PHP scrip to be executed each hour. If you demand more than this volume, consider upgrade to Lunarpages VPS plan or dedicated server to have higher email sending capacity.
