Find Out Your Gmail's Daily Email Sending Limit

Date 6/1/2013
You can know that Gmail imposes a limit on the size of file attachments (25 MB) and the overall storage space but you also have limited daily quota for sending email messages through Gmail.   If you break the rules, Google will disable you Gmail account temporarily without any warnings and it may take another 24 hours before you can regain access to your Gmail mailbox.


Thus, before sending an email message to a large group of friends using Gmail, read the following rules to avoid temporary shut-down of Gmail:


Rule 1. If you access Gmail via POP or IMAP clients (like Microsoft Outlook), you can send an email message to a maximum of 100 people at a time. Cross the limit and your account will be disabled for a day with the error “550 5.4.5 Daily sending quota exceeded.”

Rule 2. If you access Gmail from the browser, you may not address an email message to more than 500 people at a time. Try adding any more recipients in the To, CC or BCC field and your Gmail account will get probably disabled for 24-72 hours. Error: “Gmail Lockdown in Secton 4″


Rule 3. Always double check email addresses of recipients before hitting the Send button in Gmail. That’s because your account will get disabled if the email message contains a large number of non-existent or broken addresses (<25 ?) that bounce back on failed delivery.

Read these rules and apply them for avoiding your account temporary disabling.
