What types of messages count toward the limit?
It’s not just spammy, salesy, marketing, or promotional emails that Google is cracking down on.
The daily limits enforced are across the board. If it leaves your email box and goes to someone else’s – that counts against your daily send limit.
Individual accounts, such as free Gmail accounts are limited to sending a maximum of 500 emails in a 24-hour period, and a maximum of 100 addresses per email.
Paid Google Workspace account — If you use a paid Google Workspace account, you are limited to sending a maximum of 2,000 emails in a 24-hour period.
Every email sent from your account is included in the daily sending limit.
This includes emails sent from
- a Gmail alias
- Delegated users
- Even Out of office messages or vacation responders.
So it’s more important now than ever before to make sure every message that you hit send on is making an impact!
