When you've got a cloud web hosting account and you set up an e-mail address, you might consider the option to send and receive messages for granted, however, this isn't always true. Sending e-mail messages isn't necessarily a part of the hosting plans that service providers have and an SMTP service is required to be able to do that. The abbreviation represents Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and that is the piece of software that permits you to send email messages. If you work with an email application, it creates a connection to the SMTP server. The latter then searches the DNS data of the domain, which is a part of the receiving address to find out which email server handles its emails. After some system information is exchanged, your SMTP server delivers the email to the remote IMAP or POP server and then the e-mail is finally delivered in the corresponding mailbox. An SMTP server is needed if you use some kind of contact form also, so if you have a free of charge hosting plan, as an example, it's probable that you won't be able to make use of this type of form as most free of charge web hosting service providers don't allow outgoing e-mails.
