Here are some of the common errors in sending accounts:

Can't create a new access token for user

This usually happens when your email provider is unable to share the token with Instantly or has revoked access to the token.

This usually occurs if you changed the password for your sending account and did not update it in Instantly. To fix the error, please reconnect the accounts:


550 5.4.5: Daily user sending quota exceeded

This usually happens when you've reached the limit of the number of emails that can be sent from your account within a day.

To resolve this error, you can try the following options:

  • Reduce the number of emails you are sending each day.

    It's recommended to send 30 campaign emails + 10 warmup emails per day per account.

  • Upgrade your email plan to increase your daily sending quota.

    You can contact your email provider to see if this is an option.​

  • Wait for 24 hours before sending any more emails.

    The sending limit resets every 24 hours. This will give your account time to reset its daily sending limit.​

  • Use an alternative email provider.

    Use an email provider that offers a higher daily sending quota.


SMTP is disabled

For Microsoft Outlook accounts, the account can be disconnected if SMTP is disabled.

To resolve this error, please follow the steps below:

  1. Enable the SMTP for your Outlook accounts.

  2. Remove the email accounts from Instantly.

  3. After an hour, connect them back to Instantly again. Waiting for an hour is a crucial step. This allows Microsoft to propagate the changes and share new tokens with us.

Note: In case you are getting the error 'Your account already exists' when trying to add it, you need to sign in Instantly from the Incognito window.


Disconnected Google account

If you connect the Google accounts using the App password method, here are the steps to fix the disconnected error:

  1. Sign in to your Google account in Incognito mode. Make sure that no other Google accounts are logged in.

  2. Click this URL to continue.

  3. Turn off your two-factor authentication and turn it on again.

  4. Create a new app password.

  5. After you've done all that and have a new app password, try reconnecting your Google account back to Instantly.

Note: If your Google account keeps disconnecting after trying the solution above, try logging in to your Google account from the web browser and reload Instantly after that.


If the Done-For-You email account is disconnected, please contact our support team for assistance.
