A server that states limits is not a volume promise.

Answer A server that states limits is not a volume promise. RFC 9422 describes the LIMITS SMTP extension, a way for a server to state its limits. A stated limit is not the volume you were quoted on a solo. The document is RFC 9422, titled The LIMITS SMTP Service Extension. That is a fact about mail software or about an old specification. It is not a solo ad price, a rank, or proof that a stranger opted in.

The note that started this: RFC 9422, The LIMITS SMTP Service Extension, RFC 9422.

A rented send is one letter to someone else's list. A way for a server to state its limits is not that letter, and it is not the size of the send you were quoted. A seller who points at a stated limit and calls it the drop has swapped a server note for the order. The server can state a limit. The quote is whatever the order says. Those sentences can disagree. When they do, the order is the deal and the extension is mail software.

If you use solo ads for affiliate marketing, the volume you care about is the volume you were quoted, tied to the named list. A stated limit does not tell you the list, the sending domain, or the refund line. It does not tell you a stranger opted in. Ask for the quote on the order in words. If the seller answers with the extension, they have told you a server can state limits. You still do not have the quote.

What is the LIMITS SMTP extension?

RFC 9422 describes the LIMITS SMTP extension, a way for a server to state its limits. A stated limit is not the volume you were quoted on a solo. The document is RFC 9422, titled The LIMITS SMTP Service Extension.

A server may be able to say what it will accept. That statement is about the server. Your quote is about the solo you think you bought. Do not collapse them because both can be talked about with the word limit. One limit is stated by a server, in the sense this document describes. The other is the volume you were quoted. The document does not set the quote, and the quote does not become true because a server can speak. Ask the seller which of the two they just read you.

The letter still has to go to the named list from the named sending domain under the refund line. A stated limit does not choose the list and does not prove anyone asked for the offer. The title is an extension for stating limits. It is not a promise about your order.

• The volume you were quoted is written on the order.
• A stated server limit is not copied over that volume.
• The list, the sending domain, and the refund line are named before you pay.
• A server limit is not treated as proof a stranger opted in.

Is a stated server limit a volume promise?

No. A server that states limits is not a volume promise. That is a fact about mail software or about an old specification. It is not a solo ad price, a rank, or proof that a stranger opted in.

Volume promises are how solos go wrong when the number lives in a conversation and not on the order. This document does not fix that by letting a server talk. It gives the server a way to state limits. Your protection is the order, plus the refund line if the send is not what you named. Do not protect yourself by citing the extension. The extension will not take your side in a dispute about the quote. It was not written as your quote.

Sellers should be glad of the split. If you sell a stated limit as the volume, you will argue about a server when the buyer asks about the list. Say the limit only as a server fact, if you must say it at all, and say the quote as the order. Buyers should repeat the quote back and ask where it is written. If the writing is a citation of RFC 9422, the quote is missing. The document is not a rank and not a price.

Where should the quoted volume live?

A buyer still has to name the list, the sending domain, and the refund line on the order. The volume you were quoted on a solo belongs on that order. A stated limit does not replace it.

Put the quoted volume next to the list name so you can see they are one deal. Put the sending domain on that same note. Put the refund line where you can find it if the volume or the list is not what was quoted. The extension can be mentioned later, as a fact about servers, if anyone confuses a stated limit with the quote.

Before you buy solo ads, ask the seller to state the quoted volume without stating a server limit in the same breath. If they cannot separate the sentences, they have not separated the products. Pay for the order. Leave the extension as what it is: a way for a server to state its limits, not the volume you were quoted, and not a promise.
