In case you have a website hosting plan and you create an email address, you may consider the option to send out and receive emails for granted, however, this is not always the case. Sending e-mail messages isn't necessarily part of the website hosting packages that companies will offer you and an SMTP service is required to be able to do that. The abbreviation means Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and that is the set of scripts that enables you to send e-mails. If you use an e-mail application, it creates a connection to the SMTP server. The latter then searches the DNS records of the domain, that is a part of the receiving address to find out which mail server handles its e-mails. After some system information is exchanged, your SMTP server provides the message to the remote IMAP or POP server and then the email is finally delivered in the related mailbox. An SMTP server is required if you work with some sort of contact page as well, so in case you use a free hosting package, for instance, it is very likely that you won't have the ability to use this type of form since many free of charge hosting providers don't allow outgoing e-mail messages.
