When Gmail puts a hard stop on your outreach
You queue up dozens of follow‑ups in LaGrowthMachine, only to see them stall with a blunt notification: “You have reached a limit for sending mail.” Suddenly, your campaign grinds to a halt until tomorrow. Not ideal when every touchpoint matters.
What’s happening under the hood
Gmail enforces strict daily thresholds—500 sends/day on personal accounts, 2 000/day on Workspace. Once you hit that cap, outgoing messages are blocked. LaGrowthMachine surfaces Gmail’s error and pauses all further sends for that account until the limit resets at midnight. Outlook/Exchange behaves similarly (blocked mails return “message non distribué”).
1) Quick-fix: get back to sending
Verify your quota
Log into Gmail and check your daily send count or use Google Workspace Reports.
Wait for reset
Stop all campaigns, then wait until the 24 h window ends (midnight in your timezone).
Adjust LGM settings
In Settings > Email > Daily Sending Limits, set your max sends below Gmail’s cap (e.g. 450 instead of 500).
After reset and limit tweak, relaunch your campaign—emails will resume flowing.
2) Prevent future blocks
Use multiple accounts: rotate between separate Gmail or Workspace accounts to distribute sends.
Leverage external SMTP: integrate a service like SendGrid or Mailgun for higher quotas and dedicated IP.
Stagger sends: spread your daily volume across morning, afternoon, evening to avoid hitting limits early.
These steps smooth out your send curve and keep Gmail happy.
