To help keep systems healthy and your account safe, Google limits the amount of bandwidth, storage space, server requests, and emails that users can send or receive in their Google Workspace account. These limits don’t inhibit normal email use, but are designed to help identify any misuse of Gmail.
Best practices for Google Workspace Gmail accounts.
If you use Gmail for work or school, follow the guidelines in this article to get the best Gmail performance.
To keep systems healthy and accounts safe, Google limits the number of Gmail messages users can send per day, and the number of recipients per message.
If your users exceed an email sending limit, they’ll get an error message, such as:
After reaching one of these limits, users can’t send new messages for up to 24 hours. However, they can still access their Google Workspace account, get incoming email, and use their other Google services. After this suspension period, sending limits are reset and users can resume sending mail.
You can try Google Workspace with a free trial account.
Google Workspace free trial accounts have different limits than paid accounts, and limits aren’t increased during the free trial period. Visit About your Google Workspace free trial to:
To convert to a paid account, follow the steps in About your Google Workspace free trial.
Limits increase for paid accounts
After you convert from a free trial account to a paid subscription, your account sending limits automatically increase when both of the following are true:
If you bought your domain from Google, the cost to increase your limits is the cost of your domain plus US 100.
Limits for Drive and Groups with free trial accounts
When using Google Drive through a Google Workspace free trial account, you can share Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides with people inside and outside your organization. If you reach the Gmail trial limit, you can continue to share with people outside your organization, but they won’t get the sharing email notifications.
When using Google Groups through a Google Workspace free trial account, you might experience the following limits:
Sending limits can change without notice. Limits per day are applied over a rolling 24-hour period, not a set time of day.

Messages that counts toward user limits
When you use the Gmail for mobile app in Google Sync mode, the same Sending limits apply as when you use Gmail in a web browser.
When you use the Gmail for mobile app in IMAP mode, the SMTP sending limits apply
Administrators can check the Users section of the Google Admin console to find details about which limits were reached. Sometimes administrators can restore access. For instructions, go to Restore a suspended Gmail account.
Accounts that are detected as sending spam might be permanently restricted from sending email. For details, go to Google’s Spam and abuse policy.
To help reduce the likelihood that Gmail blocks your messages or marks your messages as spam, follow the guidelines in Prevent mail to Gmail users from being blocked or sent to spam.
To keep Gmail efficient and accounts safe, Google limits the number of messages you can receive. If your account receives many automated messages, it’s more likely your account will reach the message limit.
When an account reaches the limit, you can’t receive any new messages. The account might also have general problems, for example slow searching. Any new incoming messages bounce back to the sender.
If you’re locked out of your Gmail account, an administrator can:
These Gmail limits apply to all editions and can’t be increased. The limits may change without notice.
Description | All email addressed to the account. Might appear as threaded and non-threaded Gmail conversations. |
---|---|
Per minute | 60 |
Per hour | 3,600 |
Per day | 86,400 |
Size limit |
You can receive emails of up to 50 MB.
Note: To send file attachments larger than 25 MB, use Google Drive or other file-sharing services. |
How long does a suspension last?
If an account reaches a receiving limit, the restriction on getting new mail typically lasts for about 24 hours. After 24 hours, receiving limits are automatically reset and the account can get mail. When an account is reset, messages sent to the account during the restricted period can’t be recovered.
Use Google Groups
To avoid reaching the receiving limit, send message logs and automated emails to Google Groups. Use Groups to read large or frequently mailed announcements. Using Groups helps avoid going over the receiving limits for your Gmail account. Sending automated emails to a Groups account reduces the number of messages sent to your email account. Using Groups lets you take advantage of the receiving limits for both email and Groups.
When using Groups to reduce incoming messages to your Gmail account, keep in mind:
Accounts best practices
Avoid using catch-all accounts
Spammers often try to guess email addresses in your domain. When they guess incorrectly, the spam is delivered to the catch-all address. The high mail volume can quickly reach Gmail’s limits.
All Google Workspace accounts have Gmail bandwidth limits that help ensure the health and safety of Google systems and accounts.
As an admin, you can check the User list in your Admin console for accounts that have been suspended because they’ve reached Gmail limits. You can also see when the accounts will be reset. In some cases, you can reset the Gmail suspension. For more information, go to Restore a suspended Gmail account.
Activities that transfer large amounts of data in a short time can cause Gmail accounts to reach the bandwidth limit. For example, syncing a Gmail account to a third-party email client can use a large amount of data.
Reaching the sync limit triggers a safeguard that temporarily stops IMAP uploads for the account. For recommendations about limits and synchronization, go to Sync limits.
The following Gmail bandwidth limits apply to all Google Workspace editions and may change without notice.
Limit | Per hour | Per day |
---|---|---|
Download with web client | 750 MB | 1250 MB |
Upload with web client (includes emails sent via Gmail SMTP) | 300 MB | 1500 MB |
Limit | Per day |
---|---|
Download with IMAP | 2500 MB |
Download with POP | 1250 MB |
Upload with IMAP | 500 MB |
