Why Your Regular Mailbox Is the Wrong Tool
Many businesses try to send festival greetings or offers to hundreds of customers from a normal mailbox using BCC. This almost always ends badly: hosting servers enforce hourly sending limits, recipients cannot unsubscribe, and one spam complaint can get your whole domain blocklisted, affecting even your normal one to one business mail.
Option 1: Server Mailing Lists
cPanel includes a mailing list feature suitable for small internal groups, such as staff@yourdomain.in reaching twenty employees. It handles membership and delivery, but it has no design templates, no open tracking, and no automatic unsubscribe handling for marketing purposes. Use it for internal announcements only, not customer promotions.
Option 2: Dedicated Marketing Platforms
For customer newsletters, use a purpose built service such as Zoho Campaigns, Mailchimp, Brevo or similar. These platforms provide:
- Consent management and one click unsubscribe, which modern mailbox providers now require for bulk senders.
- Templates that look correct on mobile, where most Indian users read mail.
- Open and click reports so you know what works.
- Separate sending infrastructure, so a complaint does not damage your business mail reputation.
Setup Checklist
- Verify your domain inside the marketing platform by adding the DNS records it provides. We can add these for you if you raise a ticket.
- Use a subdomain such as
news.yourdomain.infor bulk sending to isolate reputation. - Import only contacts who agreed to receive mail. Purchased lists cause complaints and blocklisting.
- Always include your business name, physical address and an unsubscribe link.
- Start with small volumes and grow gradually so mailbox providers learn to trust the sender.
