What is SMTP
SMTP is a computer’s unique procedure for sending messages between two servers. SMTP is commonly used to send data from an email client to an email server, and that’s generally why you must furnish both the IMAP or POP and the SMTP server when configuring a new email application.
However, this technology is limited in its message queueing capabilities on the receiving end. It’s generally paired with another SMTP server, which allows users to save messages in a mailbox for later download.
