Need details about "Email Hosting"

[Jani]

I am using Namecheap hosting for this forum and it allows sending only 200 emails per hour. If 200 emails have been sent in just few minutes then the rest of the emails will have to wait until the new hour begins.

I saw on their web hosting page that they offering "Email Hosting" which I don't understand what it is?

Namecheap.com - Web Hosting - Shared Hosting Plans - Cheap Virtual Hosting

Does it mean that if I buy that email hosting I can send many or unlimited emails?

I looked around the site. And cannot find any confirmation that allow unlimited e-mails for a e-mail only account. I would send a support ticket and or talk to a rep to confirm that you would have the ability to use the e-mail server as you desire.

Well, I was just wondering if I get some details from here without contacting their support because I am not going to pay "separately" only for emails. I would choose using a VPS or any other good shared hosting company which allows sending many emails.

Yes that would be silly to buy just e-mail hosting. When it appears you are already a client one one of there webhosting server.

Jani, don't your emails end up in spam when emailing from shared hosting?

[Jani]

I don't know, how can I know if my emails from WG are going to the spam folders?

But I am really not happy with this 200 emails per hour restriction.

Email hosting means that a company offers to perform email functions for customers. These functions can be as basic as send and receive and as complicated as database processing and global searching.

The vast majority of webhostiong providers have a 200 per hour limit set up on the servers. The main reason for this is spammers that set up shop in your server. Its much easier to spot the spammers when there e-mail usage has clogged up the e-mail system.

And considering how most providers are dirt cheap they are perfect place for spammers to set up shop. since they dont lose to much money when found out.

Even I have a 200 limit on our smaller server. Since it is the cheapest price per month. It then goes to 500 per hour on the Hypercycle Server. Then unlimited on the Factory server. Of course the price is higher on each machine.

I actually don't like this email limit because as I run this forum and it sends email notifications to members. Currently it is not a busy forum but still I see some emails bounce back to me because the 200 emails has already been sent. Members miss those emails

But as you said most hosting companies have this limit I think I will have to buy an email hosting package too.
