Answer 1

Assuming that by "Google Apps Script" you are referring to a Google Apps account, then yes there is at http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=166852. The limit is 500 external recipients per day.

Note that as of 30th January 2014 the quota is 100 outgoing emails per day:

Check https://docs.google.com/macros/dashboard for the latest values as "All quotas are subject to elimination, reduction or change at any time"…

Answer 3

You can use MailApp.getRemainingDailyQuota() to get an "estimate" of how many more emails to distinct recipients you can send for the day.

I haven't sent any emails today and the function returned 500, so that confirms the daily limit suggested by Joseph.

Answer 4

I don't have reference for this but in my experience I always calculate my minimum loop duration by taking the quota and dividing it by the number of seconds in the specified quota limit. So for example if I have a quota that says that I can look at a pretty girl only 86400 times a day then I try to make sure I only look at pretty girls once per second. It's clear to me that Google does not wait for you to reach a daily limit before they act they seem to calculate the rate of change of quota usage and shut you down when you exceed it.
