If your domain is managed by No-IP, the SPF record can be added in your No-IP account from your DNS Records page then clicking “Modify” for your domain. On the Hostname page, click the “TXT” button. At the bottom of TXT page, in the box labeled “Data”, paste the SPF record provided below:
v=spf1 include:no-ip.com -all
Finally, click “Add”
If your DNS is managed elsewhere you’ll have to add that same record with your DNS provider.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is my send limit for the POP3/IMAP service?
The SMTP limit is 500 relays per day, per mailbox. Unused relays do not carry over. Relay limit is reset based on a rolling 24-hour period. For example, an email sent at 08:00 will not be restored until 08:00 the next day. There is also an initial throttling of the service during the first 15 days. This is to prevent bad users from purchasing the service and immediately using it for spamming/phishing purposes:
| Days | Relays Allowed |
|---|---|
| 0 | 25 |
| 1 | 35 |
| 2 | 71 |
| 3 | 107 |
| 4 | 142 |
| 5 | 178 |
| 6 | 214 |
| 7 | 250 |
| 8 | 285 |
| 9 | 321 |
| 10 | 357 |
| 11 | 392 |
| 12 | 428 |
| 13 | 464 |
| 14 | 500 |
Does adding recipients (CC/BCC) count towards my send limit?
Yes, this does count towards your send limit. For example, sending an email to john.doe@example.com will take up one relay. However, sending to john.doe@example.com and copying john.smith@example.com will use 2 relays for the same message.
What is my storage limit?
Each mailbox has an initial storage limit of 5GB (5120MB)
Can I get more storage?
Absolutely! The cost is $19.95 per extra 5GB of storage per mailbox. You can add up to 15GB of storage this way. 20GB is the maximum storage amount you can have. To add this to your account, please open up a ticket with our support team.
