SMTP stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol. SMTP is the standard for e-mail transmission allowing you to send messages from one server to another, retrieved via POP3 or IMAP.

Spam Protection utilizes graylisting to help customers limit email received from spammers. Graylisting is when email is temporarily rejected, but it will be accepted if the email is resent after sufficient time. Spammers do not normally attempt to resend rejected emails because they're sending to thousands of email addresses.
