Does MaxBulk Mailer come with its own internal SMTP server?

Topics

Question: I would like to know if MaxBulk Mailer comes with its own server for sending emails or if I have to purchase an smtp server separately to use with your product. Other software I know of like AMS and Turbo Mailer can not send without a SMTP server, so after purchase one still needs to purchase or acquire a SMTP server to use with those products before its services can be maximized ... I therefore like to enquire if MaxBulk Mailer works the same way or not ... Do buyers of your product need to purchase a SMTP server to use with MaxBulk Mailer or can they start sending unlimited emails immediately after installation without having to add or purchase any other thing? I will really appreciate if you can make this clear to me. Thank you.

Answer: MaxBulk Mailer, as any other email client software, needs a SMTP server to connect to.

Does MaxBulk Mailer come with its own internal SMTP server?

MaxBulk Mailer has no SMTP server built-in because nowadays it no longer works well with most big ISPs. Some of them like AOL will bounce your messages as soon as they detect they have been sent from a residential IP, an IP that belongs to a range of IPs for DSL/Dialup connections, including static IPs, or that IP has no reverse DNS (PTR) or no domain assigned to it. Following our tests, using your own SMTP server or an application with a built-in server will cause between 20 and 30% additional bounces. The question is, can you accept that up to 30% of your customers will never get your messages?

In addition some ISPs like Hotmail and MSN are also using Greylisting. In short, greylisting is a method where a piece of email being relayed by a mailservers is initially deferred. This means that it is not accepted upon the first attempt, rather, the sending mailserver is told to relay it again at a later time. With standard mailserver configurations, such as those generally maintained by your ISP and free email service provider, the email will be re-sent at a later time, usually anywhere from 5-20 minutes. Bulk mailing software with built-in server however generally don't operate like standard mailservers, and usually won't relay their email again at a later time.

MaxBulk Mailer key advantage is that it fully respects and follows the SMTP protocol. MaxBulk Mailer is a conventional email client using the standard email delivery system. As a result the delivery bounce rate is extremely low.
