If you already have a website plan with us, you already have mailboxes included on your domain, and for most small companies that is enough. The Professional E-mail plan is for whoever wants e-mail on their own domain without needing a website, or wants e-mail kept apart from the site for reasons of organisation or security. You do not need to buy both for the same thing.

In the website plan |
Professional E-mail plan |
| What it is |
Mailboxes on your domain, managed in cPanel, alongside the site. |
Mailboxes on your domain, without a site, with webmail and filters against viruses and spam. |
| Space |
Shares the disk with the site’s files and databases. |
The plan’s space is for mail. |
| Sending |
Each plan has a ceiling on messages per hour, set in the plan itself. |
The plan has a ceiling of its own too. The figures for each are on the professional e-mail page and on the hosting plans. |
| If the site has problems |
Mail lives on the same server and account. An overloaded or attacked site can affect sending. |
Mail is separate from the site: what happens to the site does not touch the e-mail. |
| If you change hosting |
You have to take the mailboxes with you. See e-mail with us and the site elsewhere. |
Nothing changes in the e-mail when the site moves. |
How to decide, step by step
| 4 |
If you will send newsletters to big lists, neither is the place: use a bulk sending service. A mailbox was not made for that.
|
|
|
Do not pay twice for the same thing. Whoever has hosting with us already has mailboxes. If you are thinking of buying the e-mail plan as well, ask us first whether it is worth it in your case.
|
|
Tell us how many people use e-mail and whether you have a site, and we will say whether the plan’s mailboxes are enough or separating pays.

In our plans
Every shared hosting plan includes unlimited e-mail accounts, so the number of mailboxes never decides anything. What differs between plans is the space the mailboxes share with the site and the hourly sending limit.
| Plan | Space (shared with the site) | E-mails per hour |
| Pro | 10 GB SSD NVMe | 100 |
| Plus | 20 GB SSD NVMe | 200 |
| Ultra | 30 GB SSD NVMe | 300 |
| Business Pro / Plus / Ultra | 50 / 100 / 200 GB SSD NVMe | Ask us |
Example, a team of five: five mailboxes fit on any plan. If each person sends about 15 messages in the busiest hour, that is 75 an hour, inside the 100 of Pro. Mass mailings count against the same limit. To see how much space the mailboxes already use, open the Statistics sidebar in cPanel. For the Professional E-mail plan, read its limits on its own plan page before you decide.
