Sorb sending limits in SorbSecurity Cloud Email Security(SCES)
Updated on 19 April, 2024
To keep systems healthy and accounts safe, SCES limits the number of messages users can send per day, and the number of recipients per message. There isn’t the limitation for incoming traffic.
If your users exceed an email sending limit, they’ll get an error message, such as:
You have reached a limit for sending email.
You reached a sending limit.
You exceeded the maximum recipients.After reaching one of these limits, users can’t send new messages for up to 24 hours. However, they can still get incoming emails, and use any other Sorb services. After this suspension period, sending limits are reset and users can resume sending mail.
