==Using your own mail server==
We would recommend that customers using their own email servers send email directly using MX records rather than to use us as a 'smarthost'. Our servers are configured not to relay bounce messages, as this often causes problems for other Internet users.
==Running a mailing list?==
For customers that run their own mailinglists we would ask that you not send these messages through our mail servers but instead use the features of your mailinglist software to send directly or to use your own mail server. This is due to the main cause of our mail servers being blacklisted is due to customers running mailing lists.

==Retry==
If a message cannot be delivered at the first attempt - eg if the remote mail server is busy or gives a 'soft' fail etc we will retry as follows:
* For the first 6 hours, we'll try every 5 minutes
* For the next 16 hours we will retry around every hour
* Thereafter we will retry every 6 hours for the next 4 days
* after 4 days we will give up and bouncing it back
During this time, we will send automated emails saying that the email is delayed.
If the remote server outright rejects message or if there is some other permanent error, we will bounce the message back right away and not retry.
