If you have a shared web hosting account and you create an e-mail address, you might consider the option to send and receive messages for granted, but in fact, this isn't always true. Sending e-mails isn't necessarily part of the hosting plans that companies offer and an SMTP service is necessary to be capable to do that. The acronym stands for Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and that is the software application that permits you to send out emails. If you work with an email app, it connects to the SMTP server. The latter then requests the DNS records of the domain name, that is a part of the receiving address to find out which mail server deals with its e-mails. After system information is swapped, your SMTP server delivers the e-mail to the remote IMAP or POP server and then the e-mail is finally delivered in the corresponding mailbox. An SMTP server is required if you work with some sort of contact page form also, so if you use a free hosting package, for example, it is likely that you won't be able to make use of such a form since many free hosting providers don't allow outgoing e-mail messages.
