When you've got a shared web hosting plan and you create an e-mail address, you might take the option to send and receive emails for granted, but in fact, this is not always true. Sending email messages is not always part of the hosting packages that providers have and an SMTP service is necessary to be able to do that. The acronym means Simple Mail Transfer Protocol and this is the set of scripts that enables you to send out e-mail messages. If you are using an email application, it connects to the SMTP server. The latter then queries the DNS records of the domain name, that is a part of the receiving address to find out what mail server handles its emails. After some system information is exchanged, your SMTP server provides the email to the remote IMAP or POP server and the e-mail is finally delivered in the corresponding mailbox. An SMTP server is needed if you work with some sort of contact form too, so in case you use a free of charge hosting package, for example, it's probable that you won't have the ability to make use of such a form as many free of charge hosting service providers don't allow outgoing emails.
