Can I send emails with Hunter?

Learn how to send emails with Hunter using Email Sequences with Gmail, Outlook, or SMTP/IMAP accounts, including daily limits, deliverability considerations, and sending rules.

Updated yesterday

Yes β€” Hunter allows you to send both one-off emails and structured outreach using Email Sequences. You can connect Gmail, Outlook, or a professional email account via SMTP/IMAP to send messages directly from Hunter.


Email sending options in Hunter

  • Gmail or Google Workspace

You can integrate your Gmail or Google Workspace account and send up to 400 emails per day for free. This allows you to deliver personalized messages at scale through Email Sequences or as single emails.


  • Outlook or Microsoft 365

Outlook-connected accounts can send up to 250 emails per day.
Once connected, you can use these accounts to send one-off emails or create a new Email Sequence from the Sequences section.


  • SMTP/IMAP Connections (Starter Plan and above)

With a paid plan, you can connect a professional email account using SMTP/IMAP.
Each connected SMTP/IMAP account can send up to 250 emails per day.


Daily sending limits & deliverability

  • Default sending limits in Email Sequences

Email Provider / Connection Type

Provider Daily Limit

Gmail / Google Workspace

Up to 400 emails/day

Outlook / Microsoft 365

Up to 250 emails/day

SMTP/IMAP (Professional Email)

Up to 250 emails/day

πŸ’‘ To protect your deliverability, Hunter sets a default sending limit of 15 emails per day per account. This helps avoid spam-like sending behaviour β€” especially important if your domain is new or not yet warmed up.

  • Increasing your daily sending limit

You can increase your daily limit in Sequences at any time from the Settings in your Sequences section.

We recommend increasing the limit only once you consistently achieve:

  • High open rates

  • Positive reply rates

  • No deliverability issues

It is therefore best practice to increase your sending volume only when performance indicators remain strong, which helps protect your sender reputation.

Sending more emails using multiple email accounts

Paid plans allow you to connect multiple email accounts per team. This increases your overall sending capacity while keeping the sending volume low for each account, protecting your email account reputation, and unlocking features such as email account rotation.
