To keep systems healthy and accounts safe, Hostinger Email limits the number of email messages users can send per day and the number of recipients per message.
If you use Hostinger Email, check the limits according to your email plan 👇
Hostinger Business Email – purchased separately or as an upgrade.
Hostinger Free Email – included in web or cloud hosting plans.
What are Hostinger email limits?
You can check the following tables to find the limits of your email plan. The parameters are expressed per email account. Limits per day are applied over a rolling 24-hour period, not a set time of day.

Hostinger email sending limits (incoming and outgoing) can change without notice.
Messages per day refer to both the Outgoing and Incoming message rates. For example, an account under the Business Starter plan can send up to 1000 messages a day and receive up to the same amount. One email can be counted as multiple messages based on the recipient count (To, Cc, and Bcc).

The 30-day Trial option of the Business Starter and Premium Email plans has the same features and limits as the non-trial options for the same plan, with two restrictions during the trial period: up to 5 email accounts per plan and up to 100 messages per day.
