Summary of SmartRelay constraints
You should consider the following constraints when setting up and using SmartRelay:
- SmartRelay imposes a one recipient per message limitation for injected messagesA message can be sent to only one RCPT TO address. Note that To:, Cc: and Bcc: headers are not applicable to SMTP.
See Supported email messages for more details.
- SmartRelay imposes a limit on the number of simultaneous SMTP connections between your local SMTP forwarder and your dedicated SMTP listenerSee Maximum number of simultaneous SMTP sessions for more details.
- By default, we apply an inbound rate limit of approximately one message each second, around 100,000 messages each day
See Inbound rate limiting at the SMTP listener for more details.
- If you enable the creation of new deliveries option during setup, new deliveries are sent as TRANSACTIONAL or NEWSLETTER, according to the default that is set during configuration.See Managing deliveries by type and category and Delivery identifier, label and category > X-Clab-SmartRelay-NewDeliveryType for more details.
Note:
It is important that you always specify whether the delivery should be TRANSACTIONAL or NEWSLETTER (a bulk or marketing delivery), as this affects suppression list management.
