    I am using email marketing software. I use gmail STMP for sending email but it support 500 emails per day. Which is the best and free service through which I send a lot number of emails per day? Or what is the best method to send unlimited number of emails?

    To send an unlimited number of emails per day, I do not know of a service you could do that with that would be free. I think the best free "professional mailer" option is Mail Chimp. They allow 12k emails per month (2k subscriber list) on the free account.

    Outlook wouldn't help as you are still restricted by the SMTP relay limit of your service provider. Agree with MailChimp but there are many others that provide not just the mailing service but also the whole subscribe / unsubscribe process, reporting: open rates, click through rates etc.

    If you just want SMTP you could look at Turbo SMTP but I don't know of any free smtp service with unlimited emails.

    Was thinking a bit more about it and, while not free, you could pick up a fairly cheap hosting account with a company like Hostgator that provides a fairly good amount of mailings per day (500 per hour with Hostgator on their shared plans, up to 5k addresses in your list before having to go dedicated). Note that, like many email service providers, Hostgator and many other hosts require Can Spam Act compliance, regardless of where you personally are located.
