When running a Magento store it is crucial that all emails involved in the checkout process, such as activation links and order confirmations, get delivered without exception.
Some possible problems such as downtime, low deliverability and email sending limits may have strong negative effects on the relationship with your customers and, not to mention, on your business.
It's all about trust and reputation. If your email hosting service is not able to ensure the trustworthiness of their email system, then you may suffer from a poor reputation, even if it's not your fault. A poor reputation means low deliverability and it directly affects your store's performance and success.
