The use of our shared hosting plan (Starter Hosting, Cloud Sites, Cloud Emails) to send bulk email whether opt-in or otherwise, and the use of bulk email to promote a site is strictly forbidden. As a guideline, we consider sending over 50 or more similar emails within a span of 1 week as bulk email.
The main reason is that when you send emails in bulk, all it takes is a single recipient to logged a complaint against the sender (you), immediately the IP address of the server will be banned by anti-spam groups (spamhaus), Yahoo, MSN (hotmail) and internet service providers (ISP) which deploy spam filters on their network. At the same time this result other customers who is on the same server (same IP address) to experience bounce emails (due to the IP address being listed as a spammer) and failed to send out their their emails. This causes unneccessary disruption to other customers on the same server.
