I'm considering using Google Apps for email with my company domain and for sending emails to customers from my website using SMTP. On Google's website it says the following:

Limits for registered Google Apps users

A registered Google Apps user cannot relay messages to more than 2,000 recipients per day.

Limits per domain

Per-domain sending limits are determined by the number of users in your Google Apps account. There are two per-domain limits:

  • The maximum number of recipients allowed per domain per day is approximately 130 times the number of users in your Google Apps account.
  • The maximum number of recipients allowed per domain in a 10 minute window is approximately 9 times the number of users in your Google Apps account.

Additionally, the maximum number of recipients allowed per domain per day for accounts not yet paid for during the first month of service is 100.

If I'm a single user, with a single domain, then does that mean I can only email 130 people a day using SMTP? That limit seems low.
