Default Forum emails

I have a forum (YAF) integrated into one of the sites on my semi-dedicated Windows server - it's been up a week and already has almost 300 members.

With the limit of 1000 emails per hour on a semi-dedicated server I've disabled the email notification function of the forum as I can see it quickly overtaking my limit.

Users are beginning to bitch about it (give people something for free and they're never happy ) - I'm sure I've read somewhere in this forum or on one of the eUK knowledgebase pages that automated mail (e.g. sendmail etc) isn't included in the monitoring - can someone confirm whether mail sent from a forum in asp.net would be included in my hourly limit?

Apologies if this is repeating a question that's been asked before ... but want to be able to provide a definative answer to my client when they start griping (or even better turn emails back on)
