Why Managing Your Daily Email Sending Capacity Matters

Oversee's Daily Sending Limit is a built-in feature designed to help you control the volume of emails sent from your account each day. This feature supports a steady and consistent outreach process, ensuring that your emails are delivered reliably and reducing the risk of being flagged as spam by email providers. In this article, we’ll explain why this limit is essential and how it benefits your email campaigns.


The Daily Sending Limit is intended to:

  • Protect Deliverability: Sending a large volume of emails in a short time frame can lead email providers to mark your account as suspicious. By pacing your outreach, the daily limit helps maintain a high deliverability rate and reduces the chance of your emails landing in spam folders.

  • Create a Natural Cadence: A gradual email send-out feels more organic to recipients and email providers alike. This helps increase open rates and enhances the perception of your brand as trustworthy and professional.

  • Avoid Provider Restrictions: Many email providers impose their own sending limits. By staying within Oversee’s daily limits, you reduce the likelihood of hitting these restrictions and having your email temporarily disabled by your provider.


Recommended Usage

We highly recommend adhering to the default daily sending limit settings. These limits are optimized to keep your emails safe from spam filters while maintaining a consistent outreach volume. If you find that your needs exceed this limit, ensure you have safe, compliant practices in place to handle higher volumes without compromising email deliverability.

Note: Keeping to the suggested limits helps safeguard your sender reputation. This ultimately ensures that your messages reach your leads’ inboxes and have the desired impact.


Customization and Caution

Although Oversee allows you to adjust the sending limit and timing intervals, it’s essential to approach any changes cautiously. Increasing the email volume too quickly can lead to issues with email providers, which may negatively impact your campaign results. Only raise your sending limit if you have methods in place to maintain good deliverability practices, such as warmed-up email accounts and well-segmented lists.


Our Suggested Settings

We generally recommend a daily sending limit of 50 emails with a 5-minute interval between each email. This setting is optimal for reaching out consistently without overwhelming email providers or triggering spam filters. For most users, this balance of volume and frequency will yield the best results.

Note: If you wish to exceed the suggested limit, we highly recommend implementing a domain warm-up process and using additional email addresses to distribute the sending load safely.

Scaling Beyond the Suggested Limit

If your outreach needs require higher volumes, here are a few steps to ensure safe scaling:

  • Domain Warm-Up: Before increasing your sending limit, perform a domain warm-up. This process gradually increases your email volume, building trust with email providers and minimizing the chance of emails being flagged as spam.

  • Use Multiple Email Accounts: Adding more email addresses to your campaigns allows you to safely distribute your outreach across multiple domains or inboxes. This reduces the load on any single account, further protecting deliverability.

  • Adjust Send Intervals: If you increase your daily email limit, consider adjusting the interval between emails to avoid sending too many emails in quick succession.


Oversee’s Daily Sending Limit is a crucial tool for balancing effective outreach with deliverability. By understanding and respecting this feature, you can maximize the impact of your campaigns without risking your sender reputation.
