What are SMTP Services?

SMTP services and SMTP relay services enable organizations to send emails, including bulk emails to customers and users from their website. SMTP service providers provide an SMTP server that can be hosted or used on-premise so websites can send emails and ensure high deliverability of emails and mass email campaigns. Mail transfer agent (MTA) services are part of SMTP services. Compare and read user reviews of the best SMTP services currently available using the table below. This list is updated regularly.

    Exim

    Exim

    Exim

    Exim is a mail transfer agent (MTA) used in Unixllike operating systems. The first version was written in 1995 by Philip Hazel for use in the University of Cambridge Computing Service's e-mail systems. Exim is distributed under the GPL, and therefore is free to download, use and modify. Exim somewhat resembles Smail 3, but it has diverged and now surpasses it in user friendliness and flexibility. They both follow the Sendmail design model where a single main binary controls all the facilities of the MTA. This monolithic design is considered by some to be inherently less secure and slower, but despite this, Exim's security record is much better than Sendmail and comparable with Qmail and Postfix, as is its speed. In advanced areas such as queue handling, address routing and testing, it exhibits excellent performance. Exim doesn't have a Graphical User Interface (GUI) to help you configure it, but some Linux distributions add one.
