SMTP, which is an acronym for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, is the software that enables you to send out emails from your email addresses. Without it, you will not be able to employ e-mail applications or webmail. Whenever you send an email, your SMTP server creates a connection to a DNS server to find out exactly where e-mails for the recipient domain name are handled. Subsequently, it connects to the remote mail server and trades details. In case the recipient mailbox is available, your server transmits the email to the receiving POP/IMAP server and the latter brings that e-mail to the specific mailbox where the recipient can see it. If you want to send emails, it is best to make sure that the hosting company offers the service with their plans. Even though you use an online form that visitors use to contact you, you still require an active SMTP server for your hosting account for the web form to operate.
