SmarterMail Help

SmarterMail Documentation

• The link below will send you to the SmarterMail Documentation, this will familiarize you with the interface and it's functions:

1. https://help.smartertools.com/SmarterMail/v13/
2. For a different version of SmarterMail, please see this page: https://help.smartertools.com/Default.aspx

SmarterMail Video Tutorials

• The link below will send you to our SmarterMail Video Tutorials Wiki:

1. https://wiki.hostek.com/SmarterMail_-_Video_Tutorials

Anti-Virus Information

• Our SmarterMail MailServers use Trend Micro's Server Protection Anti-Virus software along with AVG Cloudcare. These programs are continually updated and they filter all known viruses.

Limits within SmarterMail

Information

A limit in this perspective is more like a safeguard or protection.

The word "limit" is a little misleading here, as we're not limiting anything most customers would do. If you do run into any of these "limits", please contact support right away and we'll work with you further.

• A SmarterMail VPS or Windows VPS with SmarterMail is always a good option for you if you need to have some abnormal situations handled.

Emails Per Hour

1. The number of emails a domain can send per hour is 400.
2. In normal situations, a domain will not send this many in a Day or Week.

Email Attachment Size

1. The Maximum size of an Email Attachment is 30MB.
2. If you feel you need to send a larger attachment, please consider the end recipient and the effect such a large attachment will have on them. (Storage Space + ISP Data Usage concerns)
3. Here are a couple of alternatives:
4. FTP(File Transfer Protocol) can be used to move the the file(s) to your site. Once that is accomplished you can email them a link to the file. You may need to place the file in a .zip so that they can easily download it though.
   1. More information on FTP here.
5. File Sharing Services such as:
   1. Dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/
   2. Google Drive: https://www.google.com/drive/

Users Per Domain

1. The number of users per domain needs to be kept to 100 or less.
2. In most situations, only a handful of addresses are needed.
3. Anything approaching that limit is a little abnormal and [depending on your situation] a SmarterMail VPS would be your next step after hitting that marker.

Proper use of Sub-Folders with ActiveSync

• When creating New Folders, DO NOT create Sub-Folders within your Inbox:

1. While technically possible, many third-party Email Clients and most Mobile Devices CANNOT sync Sub-Folders that are part of a user's Inbox.
2. To make your SmarterMail folders available for a third-party Email Client such as Outlook, when you set up the account in your Email Client you will need to use IMAP as your Incoming MailServer type.
3. If you use POP3 for your email you only have access to your SmarterMail Inbox, this means you can't access your personal mail folders you've created to organize messages.
4. In addition, when using syncing protocols like Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync(EAS), any folders that are created will also sync with whatever Mobile or Desktop Email Client you're setting up with ActiveSync.
5. Just be aware of the concern noted previously about syncing Sub-Folders created within your Inbox.
