Daily and hourly limits with random delays
Sending limits that look human
Pink Post gives every mailbox per-minute, hourly and daily limits that match its provider, waits a random 90 to 300 seconds between emails, and only sends inside your send window (9:00–17:00 by default). A campaign pauses automatically if its bounce rate passes 5% over 30 days with at least 20 sends.


Why it matters
Send like a person, not a script, and keep each mailbox well under provider limits.
Every account has a daily limit, an hourly limit, and a random delay window between emails (default 90 to 300 seconds). Each campaign also has its own daily cap.

Under the hood
How it works
Random gaps
A random delay between 90 and 300 seconds avoids evenly spaced bursts.
Send window
Emails go out in working hours only.
Bounce auto-pause
5% bounces over 30 days (20+ sends) pauses the campaign so a bad list doesn't damage your domain.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Daily per mailbox | Provider default (e.g. 25 personal Gmail, 30 other SMTP); lower any time, raise up to a safe max |
| Hourly per mailbox | Provider default (e.g. 10 Gmail, 60 Hostinger) |
| Per minute per mailbox | Provider default (2 to 5) |
| Provider rate-limit reply | That mailbox pauses 5 min, doubling up to 6 h (details) |
| Delay | Random 90–300 s |
| Send window | 09:00–17:00 |
| Bounce pause | 5% / 30 days / 20+ sends |

FAQ
Questions, answered
Can I raise the limits?
Yes, but for cold outreach stay close to the defaults.
Why is tracking off by default?
Tracking pixels and rewritten links can hurt inbox placement.
What does Google allow?
Google Workspace has its own daily sending caps; Pink Post's defaults stay far below them.
Does it work with Gmail and Outlook mailboxes?
Yes. Pink Post works the same with Gmail, Google Workspace, Outlook, Zoho, Hostinger and any SMTP/IMAP mailbox you connect.
Is daily and hourly limits with random delays on the free plan?
Yes. Every plan includes it; plans differ by mailboxes, prospects, emails per month, users and live link checks. Free has 1 mailbox and 300 emails a month, Solo $19 has 3 mailboxes, Pro $39 has 10 and Agency $129 has 30.
How is daily and hourly limits with random delays different from a cold email tool?
Cold email tools are designed for sales pipelines. In Pink Post every feature feeds a link deal: replies move deals, deals hold prices, and live links keep being checked, so the result of the campaign is a list of live links with their cost.
