Traffic Thresholds

To regulate traffic, throttling rules are applied to both inbound and outbound messages. 

Inbound Threshold

• BlueTie limits the number of incoming messages from one IP Address per hour
• Size restriction of a total of 160MB per IP address, per hour

Outbound Threshold 

• BlueTie limits the number of outgoing messages from one IP Address per hour
• If the number of messages sent per hour exceeds our limit, that IP address will not be able to send email for one hour.  Affected messages are not bounced. They are only temporarily deferred per the restrictions and delivered accordingly.
