If you have a shared hosting account and you create an e-mail address, you may consider the option to send and receive messages for granted, however, this is not always true. Sending e-mail messages isn't always part of the hosting plans that providers feature and an SMTP service is necessary to be able to do that. The acronym means Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and that is the piece of software that allows you to send emails. If you work with an e-mail application, it creates a connection to the SMTP server. The latter then requests the DNS records of the domain, that is a part of the receiving address to find out which email server handles its emails. After system data is interchanged, your SMTP server delivers the e-mail to the remote IMAP or POP server and then the email is finally delivered in the matching mailbox. An SMTP server is necessary if you work with some kind of contact page form also, so in case you use a no charge hosting package, for example, it is very likely that you won't be able to make use of such a form as most cost-free web hosting service providers don't allow outgoing e-mail messages.
