How It Works

SMTP2Go Corporate is an SMTP service that has been designed for small to medium-sized businesses. It can enable your business to send a high quantity of emails from any location in the world, using your already existing email software (Outlook, Windows Mail etc. or any mailing list software). Simply put, SMTP2Go Corporate is an SMTP server for businesses that works all the time, wherever you are in the world. SMTP2Go Corporate is also used by many hotels and Internet cafes worldwide.

SMTP2Go is hosted by two world-class facilities, ServInt and Rackspace, with server locations in Washington D.C. and Dallas, Texas, USA. SMTP2Go uses one of the most popular open source mail servers, Exim, running on highly stable Debian Linux and Red Hat Linux operating systems - the same setup that is used by many of the largest and most reliable ISPs.

SMTP2Go Corporate is perfect for almost every small to medium-sized business. Whatever the nature of your business, there is a plan to suit your outgoing email requirements, with plans allowing up to 100,000 emails per month. We also offer standard SMTP2Go plans for individuals or small businesses with fewer than 5 email addresses, or who always send fewer than 300 emails per day.

The following commonly asked questions explain our service in more detail:

Why would we need SMTP2Go Corporate?
Every business needs a reliable outgoing email server for sending emails, whether those emails are sent to individuals, or to large mailing lists. When it comes to choosing an outgoing email server, you essentially have 3 choices:

1. Use your ISP's SMTP server or your webhost's mail sending engine. These often come with daily restrictions on the number of emails you can send (sometimes this restriction is as low as 200 emails/day), and the server likely has nobody ensuring its high reputation is consistently maintained.
2. Purchase a dedicated server for sending email from a reliable company such as Rackspace. The cost of an entry-level dedicated server is around $350 per month. Additionally, you should also hire in-house IT personnel to ensure the server is correctly setup and monitored to ensure that email deliverability rates do not get affected.
3. The final option is to join one of SMTP2Go Corporate's plans, and know that for a low monthly fee you are also buying years of experience in ensuring the highest possible email deliverability rates. See more about how we work to ensure high email deliverability rates. You can focus on your business and creating the emails (or profiting from email marketing), and we will focus on the sending.

We need reliability. How reliable is SMTP2Go Corporate?
SMTP2Go Corporate has reliability as its number one priority. We maintain feedback loop relationships with all major email providers (Hotmail, AOL etc.) and constantly monitor blacklists to ensure our servers retain the highest possible reputation. Servers are hosted with two of the most trusted Internet providers, with zero downtime.

What if we have numerous email addresses that often change? Do we need to constantly update these with SMTP2Go Corporate?
Thankfully, no. SMTP2Go Corporate lets you enter domain names that are allowed to send, so you can send from any email address within that domain name. Enter as many domain names as you wish. If you wish to restrict access to particular email addresses - you can also enter these.

Is SMTP2Go Corporate authenticated and secure?
Yes - SMTP2Go Corporate supports all methods of authentication (this simply means having a username and password) and security used by all major email software. The choice of whether to use TLS/SSL is entirely your decision.

Is SMTP2Go Corporate easy to set up?
Yes! Setting up SMTP2Go is no more difficult than entering your email settings for your regular ISP. You simply type smtpcorp.com into your email program's settings and enter the SMTP2Go SMTP username and password. Just to make it easier, though, we've provided setup instructions for most mail programs (both Windows and Mac). View the 2 minute setup.

Will SMTP2Go Corporate work even if port 25 is blocked?
Yes - SMTP2Go is open on 4 different ports (25, 2525, 8025 and 587). We recommend using port 2525. (Again, full setup instructions are available in our 2 minute setup.)
If you choose to turn on TLS or SSL then service is available on ports 465, 2465 and 8465.

What about attachments? Can they be sent?
Yes - send any attachments, up to 50MB in size per email.

We have a large mailing list. Can we send to that?
SMTP2Go Corporate has strict rules for sending to lists that contain more than 200 email addresses. The following rules must be adhered to for sending to such lists:

• Lists must be 100% opt-in. This means that you must have obtained the permission of your recipients to send them emails. Examples of lists that are not allowed are purchased lists, email addresses scoured from the Internet, and marketing leads.
• In addition, lists must be up-to-date, and have had emails sent to them recently (within the previous 3 months). We closely monitor the percentage of bouncing/invalid email addresses and take action where necessary.
• An opt-out (unsubscribe) link must be placed at the bottom of each email which will allow the recipient to immediately remove themselves from the maillist.
• Emails must not contain content related to the industries mentioned in the terms and conditions.

Which emailing software is most suitable for sending to mailing lists?
See our recommended software for sending to mailing lists.

What happens if we reach our monthly limit?
We send you a notification email if your account ever reaches 80% of its monthly limit, and another email if it reaches 90% of its limit. We also send you an email if your account actually reaches its monthly limit. Each email contains a link you can use to upgrade your account.

SMTP2Go Corporate will benefit your business by providing a safe, reliable, high volume email service that works from anywhere. We have a range of plans starting at $9 per month. How much you pay depends on how many emails your business will send per month. (Note: An email sent to multiple recipients is counted as multiple emails. So if a sender enters 5 email addresses in their "To:" field, and also enters 4 other addresses in their "Cc:" field, that counts as sending 9 emails.)

Pricing plans:

SMTP2Go Corporate is available in the following six plans:

You can always upgrade/downgrade your plan at a later date, so don't worry about "locking yourself" into one particular plan or another. Service is guaranteed - your emails will be delivered, or you get your money back. We have a full 60 day money-back guarantee. We operate a strict anti-spam policy which means that we only allow legitimate customers to use our servers. This ensures that our servers stay off blacklists.
