When sending mass mails through IONOS mail servers, limits apply to prevent misuse (SPAM). Depending on your product, the following limits apply:
Mail Basic and Mail Business
The maximum number of emails you can send per hour depends on the following criteria:

If the limits are exceeded, the following error message is displayed:
