Limiting the number of simultaneous connections to the gmail server from one server
I was wondering if gmail (actually Google) has a limit on the number of simultaneous connections that can be opened from the same server for different accounts?
The use case is that I am trying to write an email engine from the backend. I would like to connect to other email accounts from the same server.
I tried looking around the internet for this but couldn't find anything similar. All I have found is the limit on the number of connections that can be open for an account (which is 15).
Are there any ideas about the limit on the number of connections that can be opened from the server? Is there any such limit?

The number of connections allowed for the IMAP server will be in the billions. I don't think Google is going to do any checks to see if your server is sending to many.
Fifteen restrictions for each account make the scene. However, you need to think about how many email systems are running on servers these days. It will be okay that many incoming requests come from the same server, however they are directed to different accounts.
This is just my opinion, I don't think you will find any Google Googles documentation saying that you can spam the server there as much as you want.
